Why there are moths in mahogany furniture? How to deal with them?

mahogany furniture is a kind of precious hardwood, which can last for thousands of years. The mahogany furniture in Ming and Qing dynasties is still intact if it is well preserved. However, some mahogany furniture has been found to have moth holes after being stored at home for a period of time. According to the truth, mahogany furniture generally uses wood cores, does not have activated wood cells, and has high density and strong anti-corrosion properties. If mahogany furniture uses sapwood industry, also called white leather, it is more vulnerable to moths.

Therefore, when there are moths in mahogany furniture, most people will think that they have bought fake mahogany furniture or the furniture is made of white leather. But what we need to pay attention to is that although mahogany furniture is moth-proof, it is not without moths.

For example, the Congo-made African crotonwood, commonly known as African chicken wings, is a kind of mahogany species that is prone to moth-eaten, and it often eats away from the white skin to the wood core. There is also the possibility that mahogany will be eaten by insects without treatment, even the best mahogany furniture such as huanghuali, rosewood and red rosewood will be produced. It's just that the chances of being eaten by insects are relatively small.

if the use of white leather and fake mahogany is excluded, what remains is that the moisture content of furniture is related to the drying process. Most people think that drying and moisture content should prevent mahogany furniture from cracking and deformation. In fact, there is another situation that kills eggs in trees. Although this situation of mahogany furniture being eaten by insects is rare, rare and rare, some people will encounter this situation. I think that even someone can win the first prize in the lottery, not to mention the moth-eaten mahogany furniture.

treatment method:

coating treatment, using raw tung oil or shellac paint, varnish and other protective paints in the corners of insects, and brushing them on the surface of mahogany furniture can effectively prevent and kill insects.

for chemical treatment, pesticide is sprayed to the place where insects eat, and it is sprayed continuously for 3-5 times, so that the chemical can penetrate into the solid wood, and the insects can be killed after repeated spraying several times.

using LYSIMACHIA foenum graecum, the fragrance of LYSIMACHIA foenum graecum has special functions such as antisepsis, sterilization, disinfection, insect repellent, lice control, etc., and it can play an insecticidal role by plugging LYSIMACHIA foenum graecum into a wormhole.
