The stuff they use on green coloured pressure treated timber.


Chromated copper arsenate, it works,


Not for timber buried is soil or subject to damp over extended periods.

its probably been banned.


Everything useful is banned. I can't find fly spray that works any more. I

I have been disposing of Wasps nests with some old (15 years) cat flea
