I’m not an expert so I don’t know what "treated to rejection" means but pressure treated generally means chemically treated against insects. So I would assume used in a gardening.com/r/gardenershandbook” style=”" target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” onmouseover=”self.status=’http://www.veryeasygardening.com/r/gardenershandbook’;return true;” onmouseout=”self.status=””>garden would be about the same as spraying for insects. So here’s a site with articles that might help you decide.
