Why are you selling it for so much?

I was going to ask the same question. $6.99 here, but $1 at Trader Joe’s?? Seems quite greedy on this seller’s part.

What can you use to keep the fragrance to to last, rather than throwing it out when the fragrance is no longer.

You may buy a Cinnamon Fragrance Oil and you can sprinkle on it sometimes

Duh. What is the actual purpose of these? Is it strictly decorative or used for fragrance?

Both. It makes a great Fall decoration and the fragrance is great. I hang one by the front door and one in the kitchen. Everyone who comes into my home comments on the smell.

Does the smell of the broom attract bugs

No. However, it does not really smell nor last at all. Can only smell it if you actually pick it up and place to your nose. Small and pricey for what you get
