I don't want to eat the stuff, or make a house out of it, or use it to sleep
on.
We each have our own sense of what's safe and what's not.
To me, putting the ties in proximity with food plant roots will
eventually feed creosote to those plants because the creosote doesn't go
away as long as there is solid wood to hold it.
and I meant to add, "and a medium to conduct it."
You may remain unconvinced which is your business. OTOH, I've convinced
myself that even though they're not near our vegetable garden, I need to
replace the ties around here with something less toxic and maybe even
more stable.
