Fence Posts Made Durable With Creosote Treatment
Creosote treatment can make ordinary cheap woods like cottonwood aspen willow sycamore low-grade pines and some gums last twenty years in ground soil. Treated posts outlast cedar and oak, now scarce for fence use. Open tank method lowers impregnation costs to about $30.
Treating fence posts with creosote yields long service
Creosote treatment for 6 inch posts uses 0.4 to 0.7 gallons per post depending on wood type and production rate. Costs range 4 to 15 cents per post with creosote prices 10 to 20 cents per gallon by region. treated posts can last at least twenty years. Forest Service experiments show lodgepole pine durability gains and potential substitution for cedar. Circular 117 describes experiments and commercial methods, available from the Forester in Washington.
