ABSTRACT:
A new method and apparatus includes the inspection of structural wooden members within a structure wall, and then the isolation of the wooden members infected with the insects. Heat producing devices are positioned adjacent to a first one of the isolated wooden members on the outside of the wall. The positioned heat producing device is then activated, and the adjacent isolated wooden member is caused to be heated to increase the temperature thereof sufficiently to kill a large number of the insects contained therewithin to eradicate substantially the entire infestation thereof. The heat producing device is then deactivated after the insect killing temperature has been attained. Thereafter, the remaining individual ones of the isolated infected wooden members are treated in a similar manner.
