What happens here

Post Preservative offers an innovative "Re-Treat" system for in-service fence, deck, and pole barn posts to prevent decay. Instead of replacing entire posts due to treatment depletion, this product uses copper boron solid preservative sticks. Users drill a hole into the existing post just above the grade line, insert the stick, and then plug the hole. The moisture in the wood dissolves the stick into a liquid, which then distributes the preservative throughout the post, replenishing the depleted areas. Each application provides protection for up to 10 years, and the system is reloadable using a date tag to track treatment times. This technology has been used in utility pole maintenance for over 30 years and is now available in the retail sector, found at HomeDepot.com, Lowes.com, TractorSupply.com, and Amazon.
