Hello,

I've seen wasps do this in Scotland. Don't know what yours are like over there!
Best,

Laura

Hi Robert,

I am thinking that this brick pattern is very similar to a attack pattern of 
rot fungus. I have seen similar lesions in exterior woods of historic buildings 
in Chile.

Group,

I was presented with the attached image yesterday morning. The windowsill is 
located on the second floor of a historic building. Subsequent inspection of 
the sill revealed the following:


  *   Damage was confined to top half of wood - no damage evident on bottom of 
sill overhanging roof.
  *   The remaining wood is sound -  hard as a brick.
  *   Both windows on the east side of the structure were identically affected; 
windows across the room on the west side show no signs of damage.
  *   No other WDI damage noted during inspection of building.
  *   This building housed an object that was infested with Old house borers 
last year.

What insect (if any) do you think caused this damage? Because of the size and 
pattern of the damage, my guess is  house borers.  Any frass or mud that might 
have helped with an ID have been washed away by rain.



Thanks in advance,

Ryan Jones
