Description
Carl came to exterminate the powder post beetles and carpenter ants in the unheated studio barn. He needed to do this on a day that was above freezing, even though it was in the 30's that day, somewhat above freezing, the people at Pestech thought it would be fine. In preparation for them coming Ben Keddy, Simon Tosky and I cleared out the studio. The chemicals were put on all the wood surfaces of the barn and are supposed to soak in and not only do away with the insects but also make the wood unappetizing for them in the futures. While he was here he changed all the mouse traps in the house and barns.
