Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Jun 29, 2012If these are the vertical posts that held up the old fence, they may already have been treated for rot and insects. If you pull them out of the ground, are they in good shape or decayed? If in good shape then you have nothing to worry about.Helpful Reply
