I have many mounted orchids. I would *not* consider any chemically treated wood.
Good luck~

I agree, wood is often treated with poisons that keep termites and other critters from eating it. I would never use treated wood for mounting.

I'd avoid it too. Such wood is often treated with herbicides to keep mosses etc. from growing. Think about that that will do to your orchids!
