Cob: Mud Borers

Could dabbers or mud boring inserts be a problem with cob?  I have seen
the wood boring "Bumble Bees" that have made extensive comb systems in
log homes.

Hanta Virus:   It would more likely be found in an abandon building.

The common house mouse does not carry hantavirus. People can get
hantavirus when they touch rodent urine, droppings, or places where
these animals have nested. Dried droppings or urine can be stirred up in
dust and breathed in by people. Hantavirus has not been shown to infect
other kinds of animals, such as dogs, cats, or farm animals.

 Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome is a rare disease caused by a virus
(hantavirus). The first symptoms of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome are
fever, muscle pain, and being tired. This happens 1 to 3 weeks after a
person is exposed to hantavirus. Some people also get headaches,
dizziness, vomiting, or diarrhea. After about 4 to 10 days, people who
are sick with hantavirus infection begin to cough and have shortness of
breath. If someone is sick with hantavirus pulmonary syndrome and does
not get help quickly, he or she may die.
