Wait, what?? Is that true? Why are they treated with arsenic? What purpose does that serve? edit: okay, pressure treating.... I don't understand it, but I guess it's a thing. Chromated copper arsenate is what they use. So that's a bit different from arsenic acid, but yeah, still toxic.
And we still use gal screws in timber treaded with arsenic lol

Try to imagine how I was feeling as the vapors were coming off of this and blowing in my direction. I mean, sure I was wearing a gas mask, but still.😆
