Lead melts at about 650 degrees, wood burns at about 450 degrees.
I don't do it, but from what I read, a lot of people get those free wooden paint stirring sticks from Lowes and HD and use it to scrape the side of their pot while fluxing. Apparently the charring of the stick also helps reduce the tin back into the melt while stirring. I take it that they don't stir for very long.
