Finishing some work at a clients house today and have looked at the lay downs across the street that have been there a couple years. Can't tell who owns it so I chose the closest drive and decided to ask. it's a shared drive. Guy at the first house tells me the other guy owns it, but has left for Florida and he looks after his prop in winter. Tells me the ones in front were ash and prob no longer good, but stuff up by his house aep just cut this fall and said he'd have no problem with me taking it. walk up and see tons of cut piles. Beech, elm I'm not taking, ash, red oak and shagbark. Told him I'd take a good amount. Deff taking the red oak, but will be short on space soon. Gonna try and fit the beech in too. Question is should I take the hickory? I've heard a lot of people talk about how Hickory's may rot or are very prone to bug infestation, is this true of shagbarks? just wondering if it's worth trying to fit it in especially if it can draw the bugs to my wood stacks. Thoughts?
