The process of detecting the presence of insects or insect larvae in a solid substrate, e.g. wood, in which the behavioral patterns of the insects to be detected are established. These behavioral patterns are compared to actual noise and vibration patterns detected in the substrate, after extraneous noise is filtered from the actually detected information and the data has been converted to analog form. The actual analysis is performed by a microcomputer. The microcomputer analysis yields an output indicative of damage or movement activity or lack of such activity.
