I painted the basement wall using Copper Green. I don't know if it is toxic, but the smell is awful. I have a little baby who is only 9 months. How can I get rid of the smell? Please help me.

Use newspapers, layer open newspapers solid on floor. Within 24 -48 hours the smell will be gone. Best part it's non-toxic. Good Luck
did the odor go away by using newspapers on the floor, i have the same problem, problem is under my outside deck, they sprayed the wood beams with copper green, now i cant go outside or put my air conditioner on, please let me know thank you susan
Copper green wood preservative and termite spray left our downstairs uninhabitable. Doors windows fans open for days and odor still lingers.
This is absolutely ridiculous, and bordering on voodoo. Magic newspapers will do nothing for naphthenate odor.
Hi susan - how did this resolve. My landlord just painted this on the deck outside all of my doors. The smell is hideous.
Hi - Did this smell ever resolve? It was just used to treat the deck at my house! I'm so bummed.
Seeing "Creoshield" listed as a way to block the odor.
Otherwise, remove the wood and other materials that have the Copper Green applied.
