Sweetgum balls are versatile and naturally striking — here are a few common uses:
• Craft & Decor: Incorporate into wreaths, centerpieces, ornaments, or rustic displays. Their spiked texture adds bold, seasonal character.
• Natural Pest Control: Often placed near baseboards, garden beds, or storage areas as a natural deterrent.
• Traditional Uses: In some folk practices, parts of the sweetgum tree — including the seed pods — have been used to make tinctures or salves. While this product is not intended for consumption, it may be of interest to those exploring historical or botanical medicine.
