This morning I had to pull some cladding of the back of the house to get to some pipes and noticed that I have some active wood borers going about their business in a couple of pine studs.
The type that leave small holes and plenty of very fine powder. I don't know what theyre called ... I think it may be coffin borer?? or some such thing.
The damage isn't bad enough to warrant replacing the stud especially seen as its the bathroom - villaboard, tiles - ouch!
soooo... how is the best way to deal with the little pesky blighters or is it time to call in the Flickman.....Remember one flick and there gone..... Gee that phrase brings back memories:) or is it a simple job of tying a hankey over the face and splashing liberal doses of some carcinogenic toxin around.*
* for those that don't know me .. I was joking - I'm quite responsible and fully conversant with the safe use and handling of chemicals ....and I also like to wear full-body rubber suits:;
