I have 600 bf of walnut slabs in a friends VA Tec style kiln. He opened it up yesterday to check moisture,which he said is reading 17 with his window meter. There are bugs working the bark, he says black, and about 1/16 inch holes.
I really do not want to take these slabs out to spray, so Can we put in a couple of the bombs like you use for the house?

Thanks in advance, FRank

Put in an axillary heater and heat the slabs up to 140 degrees and hold for 24 hours.

Thanks WDH, there is no power at this site. The fans are run on solar panels.
