Woodworms are not very widespread in the UK, but an infestation can be very destructive. Woodworm is the term for the larvae stage of several different species of beetle, the most common of which is the Common Furniture Beetle. These pest insects lay their eggs within damp or rotten wood. When these eggs hatch, small larvae begin to consume the wood around them, which is what leads to the holes in wood. The exit holes are made as the larvae transforms into an adult beetle which then leaves the wood. The beetles are capable of flying and will frequently leave the area to breed. However, they might return to lay eggs. In extreme cases, these insects may damage structural components of a building and this can have severe consequences.

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 found in wood and wood dust usually discovered below infested wood. Woodworm infestations should be treated by professional pest control specialists. It may also be necessary to have a structural survey completed as woodworms are usually a sign 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 fairly straightforward once the damaged area has been correctly located. The wood can be covered with a liquid or lacquer that will stop any larvae inside from exiting and suffocate them, or for more considerable infestations fumigation is often used to ensure that the pests are effectively controlled.
