Joan from Kinston, Nc writes

Can I treat an old farm house table that has been stored and appears to have had pine beetles with Bifen XTS?

After a few days, I will wash table with white vinegar and linseed oil mixed. Will it be safe to use for eating table after this treatment? If not, please advise a safe way to treat this table and use for eating afterward.

Answer:

For the treatment of wood destroying insects we would recommend Boracare instead because it is absorbed by the wood and will last the lifetime of the wood. It is recommended for Boracare to be applied to raw wood, but if it's not, you can inject it into the wood. Be sure to follow the label instructions for proper application. Once it's dry, you can then stain it within 6 weeks of the application, and it would be safe for eating afterwards.
