Actually, now thatI've thought about it, would freezing really work for
the eggs ? If these pests can take years to incubate, they would go thru
a few winters before hatching. So, the eggs wouldn't be affected byt
freezing.

Any other good quick fixes for this ? Besides the microwave ?

You've hit it on the head. Freezing will cause the grubs to go dormant, not
die. Borax is great for those things that walk in it, but that's all.

Depending on the finish, I go for something asphyxiating to take care of
adult and larva. Egg stage probably not a player. Some CA fumes, or
perhaps a good place for ethyl alcohol, as long as your finish is not
shellac. They'll get high and kill each other in traffic accidents....
