Maybe they're worried about the movement of disease from place to place as in chalara and just want to reassure there customers that any spores will have been killed off in the kiln.

Why?

 

Many American homes (Most even?) are built of timber. Many American homes have damp problems, just like here.

The spores of the moulds that grow on damp interior woodwork can make one quite seriously ill.Mold health issues - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

So perhaps not such a ridiculous comment?

No need to Kiln kill spores, I believe Monsanto do a pretty good job at killing everything off in the outdoor environment. (But don't quote me on that for fear of being awarded more arbtalk naughty points!)

 

note: And I haven't used any swear words i this comment..... or mentioned a certain Secretary of State for the Environment.

Correct. As well as federal movement restrictions to be avoided, the US is paranoid about "mold" (i.e. mould) in houses.

Imagine having so much firewood that you could actually drive up onto it!

Notice they have the best processors in the business, Multitek! Gish Logging are the sole largest producer in the USA & run Four 2040xp processors (24" capacity). Visited a site in the Uk in December with one of these & very impressive.

Crappy looking stuff though cant imagine people taking stuff like that in this country. Get complaints if every other log does not have a piece of holly and a robin stuck to it over here.
