Hey Eric, great site! Came across it couple of weeks ago.
I’m a complete noob to DIY, but going to hone my carpentry skills this summer with all kinds of projects…hopefully, lol.
Question: would it be ok to use some scrap UNtreated plywood I have around here and treat it with linseed oil? Any clue if vapors from this is bad for bats, etc?
Thanks!
