What is Wormy Chestnut?

Wormy chestnut is from the American tree of chestnut damaged by insects. The cause of damage is a wooden beetle of chestnut, which lays eggs in the bark of a chestnut tree. The resulting larvae eat and tunneled the way through the bark of a living tree until an adult beetle appears in the spring. Despite the worms, the excellent quality and longevity of chestnut wood is ideal for the production of furniture, fences, poles, floors, house construction and many other things. It has been reported that some of these trees will reach 150 feet (45.72 m), with 10 feet (3.048 m) and 100 feet (30.48 m) diameters. The types of Castanea dentata were once expanded throughout the eastern part of the United States and the southeastern part of Canada and Lu.Mber once competed with oak and other hard wood on the commercial front.
