In the world of exterior wood care there is a lot of information out there and can become overwhelming very quickly. There is several different products and application methods advertised to be the "one and done" product. While this maybe true for one application, it could be disaster for another. Just like no 2 trees are the same, there are not 2 exterior wooded structures that are alike either. Every fence, deck, or exterior wooden structure needs a case be case evaluation to determine proper moisture levels, preparation procedures, and product applications are selected. This is especially true in the harsh Florida environment. Early application and regular maintenance applied in the appropriate way is the only true way to ensure the longest life of the wood.
Wooden fences have been around since prehistoric times, with early examples of defensive wooden structures appearing in the Neolithic period. Overtime there has been several different methods and products produced. Being a vertical structure sunlight exposure, artificial water sources (irrigation), and high winds seem to cause the most harm. To little or too much sunlight exposure can cause the process of proper preparation and product choice to become key for longevity of the fence.Wood left to grey and die will not be prepared for the Florida storms and high winds. There are several other factors to include wood type, design, and purpose.
