During general conversation I mentioned to NDN that I am going to spend Monday painting/treating the wooden fences, garden furniture and deck. NDN looked quite agitated and asked if I could use a low odour product as she is having friends round Monday pm and evening (they will use her garden!) and thought the smell of 'creosote' would be unpleasant.
Do I just get on with it and use the cheap large bucket of stuff that I had already purchased (no idea what is smells like and how long it might smell for) or do I go and purchase something specifically non-smelly in the interests of good relations? If so, what products are best avoided for their stinkyness?
AIBU to ask what the 'etiquette' is for smells wafting from one's garden?
