Thanks for the information! Also, that pallet buster is awesome, I just bought one locally where I live and has made the process of dismantling pallets much easier with more usable wood.
As I understand it, a number of pallets labeled HT are also treated with MB. The stamp has more to do with regulations than the process used to sterilize the pallet. I think MB pallets are a safe bet given almost every person in the US eats foods which have been gassed with methyl bromide on a daily or at least weekly basis.
(1) Seems like a test for MB after a month would settle the question. (2) That commentor said that what the pallet carries is a bigger problem, but that seems like speculation. Do they get covered in chemicals normally? (3) Hopefully MB goes away both in pallets and in strawberries!
Years ago I took a pallet that was made with some ruff white oak. I ran those planks through a planner and ended with some unbelievable looking wood after using it for a project. I still get comments about it today and people are dumbfounded when I tell them it came from a pallet. 👍

Very informative and the advice to just avoid the MB treated wood is good. Way too many alternatives to take the risk. Thanks!
