Creosote
Hi - We just replaced our outside steps with railroad ties. The smell is horrid. I have had migraines constantly. It's the most beautiful time of year, but I sit outside and get a headache. Any suggestions or do I just have to wait for the off-gassing to be done. 100 degree weather hasn't helped, or maybe it has to "dry" them. Ugg. So tired of "if not one thing it's another". Just think I get ahead of the game and boom. Thanks for your suggestions and support! (Family thinks I'm crazy)

Hi Lisa
I'm so sorry the odor from the railroad ties is creating more issues for you. I'm not sure how to deal with this smell - could they be sealed with something less offensive? When I take my dog for a walk I pass a telephone pole that stinks and can only imagine having that odor near me whenever I go outside - you're not crazy!! And I agree, this heat and humidity isn't helping anyone or anything!!I'm sure others will be along soon to share their experiences with you and in the meantime - hang in there!
