Probably will want to try to boil it somehow. Either a big pot or 55g steel drum on a fire. At the least id pour really hot water over it and let it sit a bit. Also recommend wire brush and pressure washing
i would find dead pieces so there would be no bark. i probably would not be able to boil it . I have no 55 gal drums available. i could soak in hot water in the tub,and i do have a pressure washer,but will that be enough ? i have a couple huge expensive fish i don't want to lose .
I think it makes a difference if you are taking a dry piece of wood or one from a river. Something thats been dead and dry I wouldnt worry so much about but something wet would worry me about introducing something. If you search there are many threads on this and ive been a bit reckless in the past when id just pressure wash and toss it in. Since those days I just order my pieces from manzman in the vendor section
I've always been fine with a wire brush and a HOT soak in the bath for for a couple hours.

I never had a problem with ditect in tank. As long as it is dead,mdry, and you do not worry about the mold.
One thing you can do is heat it in the oven for a couple of hours. If it is an electrical oven.
