"Powder-Post Beetles in Buildings: What to Do About Them" by R. A. St. George and T. McIntyre is a scientific publication created in the late 1950s. This booklet, issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, addresses the pest problem posed by powder-post beetles in wooden structures. It outlines the different types of powder-post beetles, their life cycles, and the damage they can cause to buildings and wood products. The content of the book explains how powder-post beetles, particularly their larvae, tunnel through wood, leading to significant structural damage. It details the various species of beetles categorized by their traits and the types of wood they infest. The book also provides practical guidance for homeowners on detecting infestations and managing them through methods such as insecticide application, spraying, brushing, and fumigation when necessary. With precautions outlined for safe handling of chemicals, the publication serves as a comprehensive guide for controlling and preventing damage from these destructive pests.
