Non-invasive diagnosis of harmful wood-inhabiting organisms is of great importance in order to minimize interventions in valuable wood products and living trees. Here we present two methods, an acoustical and a molecular one, which enable gentle detection of insect larvae in wood and wood products. In parts, both methods have been successfully applied for the analysis of the Asian longhorn beetle (Anoplophora glabripennis, ALB) and appear suitable as early warning systems in the control of quarantine insect pests.
