I just replaced the stair treads leading up to the deck behind my house... I used PT wood for the new ones, but the old ones (installed circa 1980, I am guessing) were so old, weathered, and in some places rotten that I can't tell if they were ever PT or not. My question is this; since I've got a whole trash barrel full of wood that I've removed from the deck, if I can chop it up for firewood I will, but obviously I wouldn't want to burn any PT wood in my wood stove.
Is there any easy way to tell, or should I just set it out for the trash man and forget about it?
thanks,
nate
