Powderpost beetles . . .

---

What Is a Powderpost Beetle? “Powderpost” is the descriptive name given to several different species of wood-boring beetles that can infest wood buildings. These insects lay their eggs in the pores of wood. Their larvae then hatch from the eggs, feeding on the wood and creating a series of tunnels as they go.  Phase 1 restoration work will now also include new floor beams and flooring in the library space.
