They have yet not responded to repeated standard fumigation, anoxia and injection treatments, mainly due to lack of access. The life cycle seems to be between 4-5 years beforebecoming fast-growing adults. Please do not ask his name, as I have had inconsistent identifications, but life is certainly there asfresh saw dust is produced repeatedly and in high quantity. The now suggested method is to uses microwaves (frequencies between 300 MHz (0.3 GHz) and 300 GHz) set to heat up to 60 deg. C. Thank you for your help on this as timber is not my specific field of knowledge.
