[QUOTE="esean, post: 7988610, member: 171524"] I've been living in the eastern U.S. deciduous forest and stacking and burning wood 30+ yrs. I've NEVER seen bugs devour any stacked firewood or cause any problems whatsoever. Borers get into hickory and the frass makes it a little messy, but that's it. Carpenter ants, termites, etc. are everywhere in the forest - no point in treating the woodpile when the bugs are throughout the surrounding area. Invasive insects ARE a concern - that's why firewood should be cut and used locally and not transported very far. [/QUOTE]
