"The oil-borne preservative high temperature creosote, (HTC) is
recommended for treating posts on the farm. A 205 L drum of HTC
(ex Perth) costs about $240 if a pallet of four drums is bought.
Costs can be reduced by including mineral oil or distillate, for

commercial creosote treaters a Norman Bario, Mt Barker;
Dryandra Timber Products, Cuballing; and C.C. and J. Russell,
Narrogin. "
