Greetings: I was wondering if you folks could assist me regarding some “bugs” that have infested some furniture of ours.
We recently purchased a set of very rustic Hickory wood furniture that has evidence of some sort of infestation. We haven’t seen any bugs, but there is evidence of them as there are fine sawdust particles that are trailing down the legs of the stools. I have seen termite feces before and this is a much finer, smaller particle wood dust. I should add that the dust seems to originate somewhere in the bark (as the bark was left on the legs of the table and the four stools). As a result, a neighbor of ours thought that it might be a bark beetle, which makes sense. We thought that we’d check with you to get your input and recommendations for eradication.
