Careful when storing firewood
Just read about a family in co durham ago bought an old Victorian house 15 years ago and spent a fortune making those home modern but Self Sufficient.

Wood burning stoves, wood and coal powered AGA etc, Solar panels etc.

The problem arose from their habit of keeping a tidy pile of logs for the wood burner indoors in the winter, some of the logs were infested with wood worms beetles which moved from the log pile to the floors, stairs and even the roof joists. Its going to cost them £60K to repit all the rotten wood out, reroof, floors, stairs and treat the rest. So be careful where you store your wood.
