I need some advice on how to kill some bugs, termites i think, in a large piece of wood for a frillie cage. I have already tried soaking the thing in bleach water but it is very wierd shaped and big to fully be submereged all at once. Ive tried this 4 times 11-24 hours at a time. How do i kill these things without destroying my branch. THANKS

If it will fit in your oven you can cook it at about 200 to 300F for about 10 to 20 min, depending on how thick it is. Keep a close eye on it and keep a fire extinguisher handy just in case
good luck
