[QUOTE="SeaGoat, post: 4469739, member: 1136"]I left this piece outside on my covered porch for a couple months while I stripped it. Before stripping it, I never noticed any active drilling, but a couple weeks ago I noticed some fine saw dust.. didn't think much of it because I had been sanding it and we are currently at battle with carpenter bees :sour: I cleaned it off, waxed it, and brought it into my front hall. Today I was scooting it backwards and noticed it had fresh sawdust. I had this piece inside for months and never saw the first bit of sawdust. It seems the only active holes are a couple on the side, not the multiple holes pictured, they were just in better light. What causes these holes and how do I terminate them? Active, see the sawdust below the hole? [ATTACH=full]386790[/ATTACH] Not active [ATTACH=full]386789[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
