Hey folks, I was looking over some of the timber in my backyard last night and I heard some rustling so I got a closer look thinking it might just be a garder snake in the leaves but it turns out that I have some Locust Borer Beetles.
I don't really know my wood species very well. I think that in the pile that I'm talking about I have a section of Birch, possibly some Cedar and either Pin Oak or Piss Elm.They seem to be mostly in the Birch area.
I still need to buck the logs and then split all of it.
What do you all do when you run into these? Do you have any non-insecticide/pesticide ways of dealing with them?
Thankfully the wood is back about 60 feet from my house and also away from the garage.
Any tips would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
