Do any of you bring your wood indoors for the day's burn? ( away from the stove of course.) If so, any experience with bugs. What kind of storage do you all have. Would like some ideas, maybe with pics? Thx

Backwoods said:Thats a nice setup. Looking for some ideas for storage. Maybe I'll build some sort of wood box. I see the cat is the wood guard. Thx

Wood Duck said:I have a wood rack near the stove. It holds about two or three days' wood and the wood gets a little extra dry being near the stove. The problem is I tend to replace the wood I use before the rack is half empty. You can only use the wood on top, so what happens is that the wood on the bottom half of the rack sits there a long time, and I keep loading and unloading the same couple of stovefuls of wood. This means the wood I use is less dry than the stuff below. It would be great to have two racks and empty one while the other sits. The firewood is dry in the first place, but a few days inside makes it light really fast, which is nice.
curber said:Hears what I use In the corner of the basement. It's a bulk shipping container. I bought it for 20bucks. I load it with a scrap piece of 10 inch pvc pipe(free) threw the window you see up/right of the box. It holds about 1/3 of a cord if stacked over the edge. It works verry well. The box is about 10ft from the stove. I haven't seen any bugs, I even put sticky traps around the box. Pat
snowleopard said:Chiming in from a cold climate. A woodbox wouldn't work for me because I want the air circulating around the wood when I bring it in. I almost always pre-warm my wood because it's not effective to put extremely cold wood in the fire, and the manufacturer warns against this, as it can cause damage to the stove.
