Colleagues,

A member of our staff stumbled across this damage earlier today. The objects 
are part of a hands-on exhibit that is open for three months a year, but the 
building has been closed since summer. My guess was Old House Borers, but I 
know there are other types of WDI that are similar in size. Any thoughts from 
these photos? I apologize for the poor quality.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Ryan -





If the wood in the photos is a softwood (white pine, fir, hem-fir), then it's probably OHB. Many of the holes look old. The larvae may have ridden in with the columns and logs when they were installed and you are just now seeing a small bit of activity. Perhaps you can simply replace these elements to rid the place of the infestation.
