The “Quiet” Chemical Killers – Creosote

Creosote. From when I was young this stuff was the thing to put on gum poles that were set in the ground, for fence posts, telephone poles , any wood that would be exposed to the weather and the insects.

The smell was always horrible for me, but I saw our wooden gate in Wychwood that was treated with raw Linseed Oil, had to get done once a year or the wood would dry out in the Highveld sun. Many years later I put up a beautiful wood fence at my own house. Now I did not want to have to “paint” it every year with the Linseed Oil so decided to put Creosote on. I had a Border Colley, Quinn, that was like all them dogs, full of energy! While I treated the fence he was running around playing. I had put my container with Creosote on the fence, Quinn jumped and bounced off the fence, bringing the container down on him. It was on his chest mainly, thick hair, but go on his bare stomach and testicles. He loved water so washing him was no problem. The first probmlem was the exposed skin, it got very red and a little swollen. That was nothing. His testicles swelled up to twice the normal size, and he started damn dying! I had an old Scottish Vet that looked after my Border Collies, had 4, I rushed Quinn to see him. Now he was a fine fellow, loved animals… and Whiskey. His office was a converted house, he spent 3 nights , sleeping on the couch with Quinn on a mattress next to him. And a bottle of Scotch. Both survived. I then looked up Creosote, in a BOOK. Only remember one thing that stuck in my mind. It said that if you want to store eggs in a wooden shed, you cannot paint the shed with Creosote, the stored eggs will go vrot!!! (Rotten).

Jump to the here and now, my Big Five Wars, Marloth Park. I see HUNDREDs of treated pieces, of various lengths and sizes, in ALL the waterways leading to the Crocodile River IN the Kruger National Park. This alone is no good! Never mind all the poles planted here in use, and all the spilled Creosote.

Now if Creosote in the air of a shed makes an egg go rotten, what does it leach into our soil and eventually the ground water?

Modern life makes it pretty simple to look up things like this, no Dewey system any more. I already have a very good idea of what we shall find, let us have a look…..

In South Africa, the type of creosote sold and used mainly is Coal-Tar Creosote Type 2 and Type 3, manufactured in compliance with the South African National Standard (SANS 616).

First thing to check would be what this Government is using, as the articles written to date about the poisons in both pesticides and herbicides show that South Africa and Keyna use OPENLY, chemical substances that are banned in most of the world, never mind the illegal shit… that seems to have killed those 20 Elephant!!!!

SANS 616 Type 3 Creosote: This is the primary grade manufactured by suppliers like ICS Hydrocarbons. It is highly concentrated and used extensively for the high-temperature vacuum pressure impregnation of timber poles.

 SANS 616 Type 2 Creosote: Another major standard coal-tar based industrial wood preservative.

 Type C Creosote (Carbolineum): This is a thinner, modified creosote oil blend formulated specifically for manual brush-on applications. It is widely distributed to consumers at popular retail hardware outlets like Builders, Cashbuild, and Agrimark via brands such as Powafix.

The term “safe creosote” is highly misleading. In the wood preservation industry, “safe” s means that when it is applied under strict factory conditions, the chemicals become locked into the wood cells.

Coal-tar creosote even when manufactured to strict SANS 616 standards is highly toxic and heavily restricted globally due to severe environmental and health risks

The Environmental Damage

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): Creosote is packed with Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) like benzo(a)pyrene. These compounds are persistent, meaning they do not break down easily and remain in the ecosystem for decades.

Soil Contamination: Creosote-treated poles notoriously “bleed” or leach oily residue into the surrounding soil over time. This kills off beneficial soil microbes and can be absorbed by nearby plant roots.

Aquatic Toxicity: It is incredibly dangerous to aquatic life. If creosote leaches into groundwater or is used for structures near rivers, dams, or coastlines, it bioaccumulates in fish and invertebrates, causing mutations and death.

Looked to see what lies the marketing people come up with, obviously they going to have to lie in order to continue to sell to the New Wave “Organic Everything, Save the Planet types. They came up with this.

Creosote vs. “Creocote” (The Retail Alternative)

If you buy “creosote” at a local hardware store like Builders or Agrimark for a DIY project, you are often actually buying Creocote or a modified Carbolineum.

What it is: These are consumer-grade, thinned-down bitumen or oil-based wood derivatives designed to mimic the smell and look of real creosote.

Is it safe? While it contains significantly fewer toxic PAHs than industrial coal-tar creosote, it is still an oil-based hydrocarbon. If it washes into your garden soil or storm drains, it acts exactly like an oil spill, coating organisms and contaminating water sources.

How can anyone that is WATCHING this planet die and faster all the time because of loss of species, find this acceptable. Just ban the shit in Nature Reserve for a start…… ja ja and Pigs will soon fly…..

रासायनिक मूलद्रव्यांचा शोध – दमी. त्रीफोनोव, व. त्रीफोनोव (Chemical Elements How They Were Discovered In Marathi by D. N. Trifonov, V. D. Trifonov )

या पुस्तकामध्ये आपण रसायनशास्त्रातील “मुळाक्षरां “ची कशी रचना झाली, तसेच आपल्या चौकस बुद्धिमत्तेतून संशोधकांनी एकामागोमाग एकेका नव्या मूलद्रव्याचा शोध कसा लावला याचे विवेचन करणार आहोत.

बहुतेक सर्व रासायनिक मूलद्रव्यांवर अनेक पुस्तके लिहिली गेली आहेत. त्यांची संख्या एवढी प्रचंड आहे की त्यांचे एक स्वतंत्र ग्रंथालयच होईल. त्या पुस्तकांमध्ये, मूलद्रव्यांचा अंतर्भाव असणारे खडक व खनिजे, त्यांच्या नि- एकर्षणाच्या विविध पद्धती, मूलद्रव्यांचे भौतिक आणि रासायनिक गुणधर्म यांचा आढावा घेतलेला असतो. काही मूलद्रव्ये आश्चर्य वाटण्याएवढी मुबलक आहेत. त्यांचे उपयोगही अनपेक्षित वाटावेत एवढ्या भिन्नभिन्न क्षेत्रात केलेले आढळतील. खरे तर आजच्या प्रगत वैज्ञानिक युगात प्रत्येक मूलद्रव्याचा काहीना काहीतरी महत्त्वपूर्ण उपयोग आहेच आहे असेच दिसेल. प्रत्येक मूलद्रव्याचे त्याचे स्वतःचे असे खास “चरित्र” असून ती सारी आपापल्या परीने वैशिष्ट्यपूर्णही आहेत हे खरे की मूलद्रव्यांच्या शोधांच्या इतिहासाबाबत अद्यापीही बरीच संदिग्धता आहे व इतिहासकारांना न सुटलेले प्रश्न अजूनही सोडविता आलेले नाहीत. कुणी सांगावे, त्यांच्यापैकी एखादा- दुसरा इतिहासकार तुम्हीही असू शकाल !

For #Indigenous communities in ‘#Alberta,’ the #OilIndustry has left an ugly stain

Facing #OilSpills, evacuations and #illness — nations downstream of the #OilSands grieve their way of life, as the #corporations polluting their water get richer

By Brandi Morin, December 7, 2023

Excerpt: "The rush of the wind and sprays of water add to the thrill as Jason Castor guides his riverboat through a stretch of #LakeAthabasca near #FortChipewyan, in #Treaty8 territories. If he slows down, his boat could get stuck in the mud or even flip over because the water levels in this spot are remarkably low. He steers around buoys, dodges logs and other debris while accelerating to the mouth of the channel, which he knows should be deep enough to navigate at an average speed.

"While trawling his boat further down the river, Castor points to odd-looking clusters resembling dirty foam floating by.

" 'There’s just a slurry of a foam that looks like #oil or some kind of #chemical in there,' says Castor, a 42-year-old father, construction business owner and member of the #AthabascaChipewyan #FirstNation (#ACFN).

"He’s been a traditional hunter, trapper and fisherman for nearly 20 years and has documented strange changes in the water, the land and animals.

"Something’s going on in the river, he says.

" 'They say that it’s natural, well, I know that that’s not natural because I’ve been on the river my whole life,' he explains as he points to brown and #WhiteFoam, #OilSheens and other discoloured formations floating on the river.

"Nowadays, it’s risky to navigate these waterways because of industrial intakes like the #WACBennettDam to the west in B.C.; the #AlbertaOilSands just up the river and impacts from #ClimateChange.

"The #PeaceAthabascaDelta is the second-largest #freshwater delta in the world.

"The #AthabascaRiver, and the larger delta, also sit atop the world’s largest known reservoir of #CrudeBitumen.

"The industry that has sprung up around it drives Alberta’s and Canada’s economy, employing about 138,000 people. In 2021, crude bitumen production totaled approximately 3.3 million barrels per day. The oil sands energy sector including oil sands, conventional #OilAndGas, mining and quarrying is valued at about $18 billion.

"But while Canada prospers off the oil sands industry, #Indigenous communities downstream are dealing with its #toxic impacts.

"Not only are the water levels fluctuating, but the health of the water flowing through the Athabasca River is jeopardized."

My neighbors have subscribed to one of those twice-a-month mosquito-spraying services for over a decade. But the guys always blast it over the fence, coating my nearby strawberries and likely killing small pollinators such as syrphid flies for weeks. I still can't believe this is legal. #pyrethroids #insecticide #chemical #pollinators #mosquitoes #insects #MosquitoShield #swarthmore

My neighbor just had her property fogged by Mosquito Shield, one of those outfits that uses gasoline-powered foggers to coat foliage with insecticides every few weeks. I can always smell it, which means that the chemicals have drifted into my yard and are now killing my insects. Makes my blood boil. Here's my post about pyrethroid sprays in case you can share with friends who are considering signing up for these services. #insects #insecticides #mosquitoes #mosquito #pyrethroids #chemical #pesticides #pollinators #nature
