bamboo should be protected from moisture, fungi, insect, worm:
+ Bamboo should be under the roof, out of the ground, water contact.
+ Open space, good ventilation in order to keep bamboo dry.
+ Wide overhanging roof.
+ Structure should be visible, it is easy to detect signs of damage, fungi or insect attack.
