Thanks. It is not.

Creosote is a deadly poison and is carefully controlled under TSCA. It is made from the oil that comes off metallurgical coal when the coal is “coked” (volatiles driven off to make a pure carbon product) in a coke over at a steel mill. I think the majority of US creosote is made at a Monterrey, Mexico steel mill.
