Why Do Telephone Poles Never Rot But Fence Posts Do?
What happens here
After successfully drilling a hole, the creator retrieves one of the Post Preservative sticks. He highlights that these sticks are composed of copper boron, a chemical formulation designed to protect wood effectively. He explains that once inserted, these sticks will safeguard the wood from various threats, including insects, decay, and fungi, which are common causes of wood rot. This treatment is expected to provide approximately 10 years of protection. He then proceeds to simply slide the copper boron stick into the freshly drilled hole.
Goal: Place the copper boron preservative sticks into the drilled holes for wood protection.
