But just be sure about the wood you're taking, some shouldn't be used indoors.

I heat my entire house with a woodstove using scrounged wood I need to cut, split and stack.

I'd add that that list of no-go woods includes anything still green; treated/creosoted/painted/stained lumber; and any conifer.

I thought I scored the mother load the other day before I found it had termite infestation. I decided not to risk bringing that near my house.

Smart. Never worth it.

No termites up here in the Poconos but with such a mild winter, carpenter ants didn't die off and everything's gotta be checked for them too.
