The worrying question now is where the adults are now. If they stay in the vicinity and mate, they'll want to lay their eggs somewhere.
Yes but it seems that these insects :
- are not interested in dry/seasoned wood as found in a healthy (not humid) home.
- prefer sapwood (soft) than hardwood.
So it should be ok.
. How long do you guys think I should leave it like that to get the job done?
