Boracare, available over the Internet. It is a boric acid solution in a
glycol. Dilute as per the directions, paint it on, let it dry, and there is
no problem with finish adhesion. If the piece is already finished, you will
have to strip it or arrange for the use of very toxic fumigants. Stripping
with methylene chloride does not kill off the eggs.
In the mean time, get the piece out of your house!

Good Luck!

I don't know what Nissus is but http://www.bugspray.com/ is where I have
obtained it as well as a lot of very useful information. Look under Powder
Post Beetle.

To reply directly, remove both NGs.

put it in a home that's gonna undergo conventional fumigation for
termites. that gas they use is a real KILLER!

call a fumigation company to find out who their next customer is.

Place the frame in a bag and put it in the freezer for 2 days. Any
worms will die. Insecticide...blah !

I had to give up JOAT. He answered every one of BAD's posts

their many replies to the fidiot troll today. Week by week,

Borax-boracare-Boraxo all same basic ingredient.
Plus they help fireproof, termite proof wood but is suseptable to
leaching by water.

Without tools he is nothing: with tools he is all."
