Default #&%@ borer in old toy?

Have a small tree toy that I made 2 years ago that for some reason now
has borer/woodworm dust coming from some little holes in the stem.
Anybody have any ideas of something that I can squirt down the holes to
exterminate them. As its a toy I don't want anything too toxic so the
kids can still play with it. I have a syringe and I was thinking of
trying some linseed oil that would evaporate after its done some damage
to the pesky little var or something like that. What about isapropel
alcohol as in CD cleanmits.
