I have a few pieces of beautiful fallen wood that is

First thing you need to do is get it off the ground and out of the rain.
If it's sitting on wet ground, it is absorbing moisture and most likely
starting to rot. After you get some real drying going on, then you can
start worrying about the critters.



Assuming it holds together, that is. Also, you might want to slab it now,
it will speed the drying process. Just make sure you sticker it when you
stack it to dry. One other thing, since you think it has active bugs,
don't stack it in your shop or with any wood you value.
