Non-CCA Wood Preservatives
At NPIC our goal is to promote informed decision-making based on sound science. In response to several inquiries about the potential health concerns associated with treated wood, NPIC presents this collection of science-based articles, fact-sheets and resources.
The topic headings below were chosen because they were the areas that generated the most interest by people who contacted NPIC. If you have questions about this, or any pesticide-related topic, please call NPIC at 1-800-858-7378 (seven days per week, 6:30am-4:30pm PST), or email at npic@ace.orst.edu.
