Can you mix different types of firewood?
Yes, mixing firewood types is smart strategy. Combine softwood for starting with hardwood for sustained heat, or blend species to balance cost and performance.

Does firewood attract termites?
Firewood can harbor termites, but proper storage 20-30 feet from your home, elevated off the ground, prevents infestations. Burn wood promptly after bringing it indoors.
