I mentioned that in particular because the house I'm living has beams that were treated with that mix when it was built, back in the 40's. And the neither rots nor gets infested. But the added fire damage is there.
Isn't this what recently happened in Maui? A lot of tarred and oil treated houses... and a single standing one with a steel red roof?
