Cement/concrete was a popular chinking or re-chinking

material for a while, depending on location. Not so good. Lots of good modern product out there.

I live in a house with knob and tube and it isn't my first such but I'd not buy another.

Plumbing, yeah we have a mix here as well. Can be an ongoing issue.

The insects, I'd be interesting in knowing how much damage. I gather this is a pine or spruce log building, not oak or poplar?
