I was able to get a regular one from a friend that was the exact same size as the universal walmart wick and was able to cut 4 wicks the size I needed out of it. Instead of hot glue I used zip ties to hold it together which is what the showed on the box at walmart. Took me 5 mins to do. If the treated one for 9.00 bucks would work that a pretty good deal for 4 wicks.

Anyone know if the treated one would have any adverse effects it's a sunbeam SFU003 if you want to take a look at it at walmart.
If it were me & my humidor, I woudn't use a treated wick.

Good idea on the zip ties BTW.

Ditto....we use distilled waters to minimize the impurities, I don't think I would want a wick treated with baking soda or anything else.
