Wood Destroying Insects

At this home inspection in Brecksville, Ohio. I observed this pile of decaying and infested wood. The general rule of thumb is to keep this type of firewood at least 50 feet away from the home. That way if carpenter ants, powder post beetles, or termites happen to decide to have a harvest festival on this pile of wood, they wont decide to bring the after hour party to your house.

We do the same thing, keep the wood as far away from the home as reasonable. One Interesting thing I have seen (your picture reminded me of it) is that at the University of Virginia, UVA the rooms that are located by the lawn always have firewood stacked outside the doors. This most likely has been done since Thomas Jefferson founded UVA.

Maybe they need a home inspection!
