    Can I use just any driftwood inside a BP tank?

    We found a great piece of drift wood up north this summer. Brought it home, cleaned it up up with some scrubie brushes and hot water, then left it in the sun to dry for the day. Tonight I baked it in the over at 250 for about 3 hours as suggested on another forum. It left a very sweet smell in the house and when I took it out of the over it looked as tho sap was driping down the one side. I didn't think it was pine but honestly I'm not a drift wood expert. It could be cedar for all I know. Are all types of wood okay to use in a BPs tank? Are certain woods toxic or possibly pose potential health issues? Iv read on other posts where people have used bleach to clean the wood but I feel that would be more toxic. Any thoughts/advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanx all
