Copper-containing rather than TRIQAC formulations are efficient wood preservatives irrespective of the origin and composition of the soil microbial communities. However, some fungi appear to be naturally insensitive to copper and should be the focus of future wood preservative formulations to facilitate the life span of wooden construction in contact with soil while also minimizing the overall environmental impact.
