We finally captured a floor board bug

Ever since we’ve had our new wood floors we’ve noticed little holes appearing in certain boards.  I took pictures of the holes and posted them some time back.  The floor people came and put plastic over the holes and taped the plastic around the outside edges.  That was over two months ago.  This morning, like every morning, I  checked the plastic trap (so to speak) under the piano and low and behold there were two bugs out of their little board homes.  I ran and got some tweezers and very carefully lifted the plastic, snagged the vermin and put them in a ziploc bag for the floor people to take and see what we are dealing with.  We need to know if it is something that they will have to fumigate for or if they are going to have to replace part or all of the flooring.  I took a picture and also took a picture with a pencil beside so we could get an idea of the size of them.  ICK!!!
