Wood stain can be harmful to health if not used properly. When applied to a climbing tower, the chemicals in the stain can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air, which can be harmful to breathe in. It is important to use low-VOC or VOC-free wood stains and to apply them in a well-ventilated area to minimize health risks. Additionally, allowing the stain to fully dry and cure before allowing people to climb on the tower can help reduce the risk of exposure to harmful chemicals. **
