Woodworms are not very widespread in the United Kingdom, but an infestation can be very destructive. Woodworm refers to the larvae stage of several unique species of beetle, the most typical of which is the Common Furniture Beetle. These pest insects lay their eggs inside of damp or rotten wood. When these eggs hatch, small larvae start to consume the wood around them, which is what creates the holes in wood. The exit holes are created as the larvae transforms into an adult beetle which then leaves the wood. The beetles are capable of flying and will typically leave the area to breed. However, they can return to lay eggs. In serious examples, these insects can damage structural components of a building which can have serious effects.

Signs of a woodworm infestation include cracking noises coming from wood in the home or furniture, as well as the visual indications which are the exit holes located in wood and wood dust usually found below infested wood. Woodworm infestations should be handled by qualified pest control specialists. It could also be necessary to have a structural survey performed as woodworms are often an indicator of damp. Even if the woodworms have not caused severe damage themselves, the damp or rotten wood that they live in might cause a structural problem in the building.

Woodworm treatment is reasonably straightforward once the affected area has been correctly located. The wood can be covered with a liquid or lacquer that may block any larvae inside from exiting and suffocate them, or for more extensive infestations fumigation is often used to ensure that the pests are effectively controlled.
