I used some left over creosote on the bottoms of poles, that were PT, dry as heck, and I pulled on after 8 years, clay/gravel, but well drained soil, it percolates well enough for a leachfield septic system. Nothing wrong at all, and this was just hand applied.
I thought you may be able to make a coal tar creosote, homebrew.
