Wood boring insects or microorganisms may still be living in these small bark pieces or deeper in the wood; if present, these organisms should be addressed by the subsequent heat or fumigation treatments. Allowing a small amount of bark to be retained means that there is a risk that post-...
What microorganisms live in the Arctic tundra biome? What is the biodiversity of the marine biome? What are some plants in a ocean biome? What are some abiotic factors of the savanna biome? What are some herbivores in the freshwater biome?
