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

I have seen similar lesions in exterior woods of historic buildings in Chile.

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 Integrated Pest Management Specialist [Colonial_Williamsburg_Logo.jpg] P.O.
