1. First of all, it is best to apply tung oil on bamboo, because tung oil can prevent borers. Clean the borers first, and then apply tung oil to prevent them.

2. After discovering meal borers, you can spray them with insecticides. Because insecticides are still effective in getting rid of these borers, you can spray them directly after targeting the location.

3. Secondly, the home may be relatively humid, which may cause borers in the wood. Therefore, you can take advantage of the good weather to dry the bamboo on the ground and let the high temperature of the sun eliminate the borers. .

Extended information:

As the moisture content of wood decreases, it can be protected from fungal corrosion, but the possibility of being damaged by mealy bugs increases greatly. The tunnels bored by adults of the subfamily Cylindropodidae lead into the sapwood and they lay eggs in them. The hatched larvae use the starch stored in the wood tissue as their nutrients.

On the contrary, although their adults also feed on the starch contained in wood, they all lay eggs in large vessels or pits. Pink beetles usually attack broadleaf timber. Although pests of the subfamily Longiidae attack both broadleaf and softwood wood, mealy bugs mainly attack broadleaf wood with large pits.
