Without giving too much away identity wise. I am very closely related to an ex Chief of Quarantine for a State in Aus. ( Hope there is lots of them). I will investigate the latest strategies for extermination and advise the forum. Its a shame to lose things you cherish.
Meanwhile dont go hard on Geneva. Ive know folk that have bought cane furniture in AUS quality stores only to have discovered borers active.
Funny thing is I got all my bowls and wooden trinkets out after this posting I read tonight. (Bought at Geneva 15 months ago) Gave them the bash ... shake/rattle /roll stuff. One dead ant, a daddy long leg spider and some pot pourie I forgot I stored in one.
Then again the other half says half "womens stuff" are dust collectors. But glad I found no active gremlins.
Keep you all posted on what I find out.
