Google, images.

"Sticks" that have been treated to deter bugs - they have a sick green
color to them. <snip>

Uh, treated lumber is not something to mess with. Not for
furniture, in dwellings, places animals are in, etc.

Rockler has these for tenoning, then a good forstener bit would help.

And if your talking about green colored wood (pressure treated), not for
indoors, or contact with skin as previously advised.

Check out

and look at one of the brighter pictures at the bottom. This is all mortise
and tenon construction, no fasteners except for the ends of the seat
material.

How do you get the joints to line up? The same way you get to Carnegie
Hall -- practice. One of our sons does these, and he has put many hours
work into the scrap pile.

Maybe he needs more salt? <grin>
