Had a heck of a time shaking the hardware out. All pieces were loose inside the barrel. There isn’t an easy access point to reach all inside the barrel. Why wouldn’t they be taped somewhere easy to access

Once I fished them out, the spigots were incredibly difficult to screw into the holes. The threads cut my hands up. 

Now I’m afraid of the mosquitos breeding in there. Hopefully not, but my neighbors mentioned they stopped using theirs for this reason.
