I spray everything - including the plants and the log and the hides).

About the pine shavings, I actually researched this. My understanding is, pine shavings as a substrate or used as material to construct a wooden reptile enclosure is toxic because it is a very high surface area that emits aromatic hydrocarbons readily. These hydrocarbons can be toxic. But, my understanding is that dried pine has already emitted much of its volatile hydrocarbons as to be deemed safe. As for the snak shack, the pine has been processed and the amount of pine present is small and it is not in constant direct contact with the snake at all times. So, I figured it is fine. But, I could be wrong...
It may be dried and processed, but you never know. I personally would not take the risk. it is super cute, and as some other members have said, it would probably be fairly easy to recreate. I am wary of anything that contains pine or cedar being anywhere near my snakes (maybe I am just paranoid )
