Can stagwood sumac be used for fire wood?

Dry staghorn sumac burns well when dry, but sumac wood is not very dense and does not have as the btu content per pound or per stick that hardwoods or even softwoods do. Staghorn sumac flowers are sometimes used by apiarists to "smoke" beehives, which helps to eliminate mites and other parasites from the bees. It is important not to burn poison sumac because the skin irritants can become airborne and enter the lungs, causing severe problems.
