I restacked my old pile of wood that I had to pull down because I couldn’t think ahead if my life depended on it.
But this time, I paid some attention to the quality of the layup. So all in all, I’m happier to see that thing when I look out the window now. Yes, somehow stuff like that that shouldn’t matter matters to me…
Of course. I meant there are no termites here. But stuff eats wood that falls on the ground, for sure.
I stacked the wood there because there were already tiles on the ground that the previous owner clearly stacked his own wood on for the past 40 years. And there’s a wooden shed at the back of the building that’s also used to store wood. I found maybe a cord of wood in the shed when I bought the house, and another half-cord inside the garage - which is also a wooden building.
I’m not from the area, I’m from way down south, and I had the same concerns also with regard to stacking wood close to buildings. So I asked around, and I was told it’s safe here - and actually quite common.
Wow, that’s so foreign to me. I knocked down a live tree the other day because it was full of termites.
