Wd 40 well i didnt try that,tried a lot of other sprays etc,even got a small amount of pool acid into a hole,but next day another hole would appear,then on a closer inspection of the timber,i realised they had eaten most of this rail.This morning i have a coffee table with no lower shelf and rail,and no beetles.
You've got a flat piece of wood on the floor? Neat :wink:
A sprout is for life - not just for Christmas.
