I avoid it because I have a friend who had a large greenhouse (about 1500 square feet) that her husband built for her out of pressure treated wood. Most of the building wood here is treated because we have several species of termites. Hers was a wood frame construction built as a shade house, it was screened all around but had a Lexan roof which was not completely water tight. When water would drip off the wood of the roof frame, either from rain or condensation, wherever it dripped on her plants (orchids, succulents, bromeliads mainly) it would cause significant damage.
PT wood has a lot of chemicals in it, including arsenic and I don;t know what else, I don;t think its really MEANT to get wet a lot...its meant to be used as the inner framing for houses. When its used here it is set into the ground in concrete.
You can build simple mounts for your ferns out of this like untreated fence posts, basket slats, all kinds of things....this is one I have, this is from several months ago, the plant is a lot bigger now. Whatever you use, it needs the ability to be able to be saturated with water on a regular basis. That is why cedar and cypress are so often recommended, they can stand up better to the copious water needed to keep these happy. Another good choice of mount is a large cork bark slab
