How to Keep Pests From Firewood (4 Easy Steps)

[@standardaussie]

Underrated video! This video has at least the equivalent amount of information that 1.1/2 hours of videos on this subject have and more. If you come across this, please give it a like. I don't know the poster, this just needs to be found easier. 👍

So I am going to put 2 cords of firewood in my kitchen stove, you got to be kidding

Amazing advices you have here. I have just one question, does it not make condensation if you use a tarp on top? Is it not better to use some kind of elevated piece of thin metal or even plywood to prevent rain on top ? Elevated i mean so there is some space between the Wood and the top, for best airflow.

Ihave 2.5 tones of oak firewood at home. It's cut already but half is 2 months old others 1 year old. Some has ants.. I ordered Bayer ant trap powder and should i do the borax trap in a bottle? Also i used lime stone dust (extinguished) near my wood stock Place at home. Most of the wood is in terrace fully closed my plastic nylon. How to kill that ant? Should i buy diatomatic soil

Just keeping firewood on a cinder block or a pallet will not prevent termites. You need termite shields on top of blocks

Thanks for the video. I have access to a lot of Shagbark Hickory. It tends to get really chewed up by all kinds of things outside. I've honestly had the best luck with it in the garage, but I really have to inspect it first. I treat the garage floor first, and that seems to work for me. I don't make my piles very big, because its green and needs to breathe, and I remove as much of the Shagbark as I can. If I spot frass in the garage, which I have, I flat out remove those pieces after identifying all infected ones. Which is easy, you'll see the holes, although some are very tiny and look like pin holes. You can also split pieces for a better look. Discard infected pieces if you're keeping it in the garage. There's always more free wood on Facebook from people cutting trees down in their front and back yards. At least there is in Iowa.

I am hoping to store seasoned wood in sealed plastic containers on my garage floor. I believe I must just make sure the container and wood is not wet before i put it into the container.

Often in Forrests under Stress, Assume ALL Wood IS Infested Already!
