Thuiiday. luly 16 1981 KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Pag* 3B Walker To Speak At Gardner-Webb Boiling Springs, N.C.—Arthur L.

The Franklin, Tennessee resi dent will speak during the 10 a.m. summer school commence ment exercise at Boiling Springs Baptist Church.

Borers Damage • Houses Most people know termites damage more homes than any other insect. But they don’t know that the old house borer is the second most destructive pest of buildings in the Eastern United States, Nancy Aba.siekong, Cleveland County Home Economics Extension A Agent, says. • Despite its name, the old house borer is most often found for the first time in houses that are three to five years old. This is because the wood was infested before the house was built and it takes this long for the larvae to develop into mature borers and emerge from the wood. ^ The borers especially like the sapwood or pine timber, and they can sometimes be heard making a rasping sound, much like a mouse gnawing. Despite the ominous sound, old house borers rarely cause enough damage in heated, occupied homes to require treatment, Abasiekong said. Often they die out after the first generation ^ reaches maturity. The key to control is to keep the wood dry with good ventilation and polyethylene on the soil under the house. Small infestations in crawl s(^cei> or attics can be treated With insectisides available only to pest control operators. The sprays cannot be used inside the _ living area of the house except in W very small amounts. Persons who cannot stand the chewing sound or the holes that the beetles leave in the wood sur faces can resort to drastic and ex pensive action. Houses can be covered with a tarpaulin and fumigated by a professional. Sometimes this must be done when a house is being placed on A the market for sale and has to be ^ certified free of insects. Abasiekong stressed it israrely necessary otherwise. Drying the wood can be the ea.siest and cheapest form of control. Abasiekong said the county extension office has information on various insects and rots that destroy wood. Anyone in- ^ terested in the information is urged to contact the county ex tension office.
