Building materials may be
purchased treated or untreated, depending on your
preference. Old treated materials used arsenic and were
very dangerous for usage for pets, but new processes are
safe. Please read below from Home Depot's web site:
SAFETY ALERT: Working with
Pressure-Treated Lumber
Copper-base compounds have replaced formulations containing
arsenic for lumber treatment. Until December 2003, the primary
pressure treatment for wood used chromated copper arsenic (CCA)
as its preservative. The new alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ) or
copper azole treatments are safe for people, animals, and plants
when used as recommended.
