That's interesting, I didn't
know that. You can still use it in Oklahoma apparently. There is a mill
about 5 miles from mom's house that coats fence posts in the stuff. I see them
hauling semi loads out of there all the time.

Fence Paint
Creosote is a great deterrent to fence
chewing. It is also banned in California as a carcinogenic
substance. So much of the good stuff, the things that really work, are
banned in CA. You can't even buy an ant poison here that will
work.
There used to be a widely used chemical called Creosote that
my trainer swears by. It's very difficult to find and you have to be
extremely careful when using it...it will burn your skin if it's left
on.
