The top is sealed, clearly some bug/beetle is gnawing at the pile, which is about 8ft from garage, should I be concerned? d56a86392b0d52957208ef7e58eef6f2.jpg

Guessing powder post beetle . . . looks from the photo to possibly be fine grained sawdust. I wouldn't worry too much.

I posted a similar thread a couple months back, whatever the bugs are they love getting into my black and honey locust. But it's not something that has gotten any worse. seems to be what you see is what you get.

I agree powder post beetles, mine have an appetite for Hickory. Can't do much about them, they'll burn nicely this winter.
