Mat from San Jose, Ca writes
Some of my firewood is infested with powder-beetles. Can I treat this wood so with Bora-care or Termidor and then burn the wood at a later date safely?
We do not recommend applying Boracare or Termidor SC to firewood. Burning any type of insecticide would release the active ingredients into the air. Burning the wood without treating with any chemical would kill anything in it.
