I would preheat my oven to 160 or so and put the pieces of oak in there for
about an hour. You have to kill the bugs and any eggs that may be inside
your wood.

I recently acquired a piece of very old oak, and am making some small boxes
from it. The boxes are partially glued up. Until I read something today,
I
had assumed that the worms that caused the holes were long gone, but the
article led me to believe maybe not. I want to make sure the little
buggers
are either dead or gone (or both).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
