Axial Borer

| My eureka lemon tree recently quickly died. When I cut it down I found that an axial borer had drilled out the centre of the wood. The borer had got right down into the stump.
I quickly disposed of the cuttings but mow it is in three Murraya bushes.
I have not seen the borer. The wood shows no entry point that I can find. There is no saw dust.
