- As the title suggests, the book also includes information on borers, powderpost beetles and furniture beetles, as well as fungal decay and defibration.
- It is well documented that common furniture beetle mates and lays eggs down old tunnels, often well below the surface.
- If precautionary treatments against furniture beetles are unnecessary in old buildings, then will they protect against fungus?
- The sapwood is susceptible to attack by both the powder-post and common furniture beetles and logs and tress are liable to attack by forest longhorn or Buprestid beetles.
