Finishing the turning phases of a large mistletoe-burl mesquite about 25" tall and maybe 13" diameter. Got the wall thickness down to a bit under 1/2" and noticed termites.
I've been turning large mesquite for over ten years and have never seen these critters.
My thinking is to spray heavily with a chemical, then sand to remove any staining. Or I could mix in a 5-gal bucket and douse on end, then the other and let dry. Or I could do either of the above and place in a garbage bag for a few days.
Any suggestions from the forum would be hugely appreciated.
