Perhaps if you were to find out what chemicals are used to pressure-treat your wood scraps, you would have a better idea as to why you don't want to vaporize them and place them into your immediate environment.

The stuff they use is designed to kill molds etc. It is highly toxic and is released for you to inhale when it is burned.
If is so toxic how come old people live longer then most of people today and when I said old I mean 200+ years ago when there was no other source but wood?

Huh?
Even as soon as one hundred years ago live spans were roughly 30 - 45 years. 200 years ago it was surely less than that. Now it's well over
In addition we're talking about pressure treated wood, treated with modern day chemicals.
What are you talking about when you say "there was no other source but wood?"

These days everything is toxic. Back then, did they have pressure treated wood?

Because of advances in medicine. Take away doctors, nurses and hospitals and see what happens. Pressure treated wood is treated with various chemicals to kill life- forms. Humans are a life-form.

Because back then people _didn't_ live longer than today. Yes there were a few exceptions but not anywhere near as many as there are today.
Do you _really_ think that burning wood is the only thing that kills people?
