Just keep an eye out for more insects, since the wood is freshly cut.
Maybe the miller has some info about the (previous?) bugs.
The latest hickory I had milled, grubs were coming out as we sawed the boards.

I am reminded of how important that is after reading your post.
Several years ago I got some wormy ash to turn on the lathe to make some traditional,
flat shaped oil lamp holders. The wood turned well, and the blanks were reduced in size
by at least half with no sign of bugs. The rouged blanks at in the hot garage for about
three months to stabilize before final sanding and finishing.
No bug stuff of any kind showed up. Sanded, finished, and presented.
Six months later frass started showing up on the display shelf.
Those little *******s had been turning at an average of a bout 2000 rpms for several sessions,
even lived through my finishing, and they still survived.
Good point!

Powder post beetles can live as larva in the lumber for 4 - 5 years
before emerging as adult beetles - I know - my hickory flooring
had several pieces infected ...
Hopefully they didn't find a good place to lay eggs after emerging ..
