Woodworms aren’t very widespread in the UK, but an infestation can be very destructive. Woodworm identifies the larvae stage of a number of different 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 eat the wood around them, which is what creates the holes in wood. The exit holes are produced 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 may return to lay eggs. In severe examples, these insects may damage structural components of a building and this can have severe effects.

Signs of a woodworm infestation include cracking noises coming from wood in your house or furniture, as well as the visual indicators which are the exit holes located in wood and wood dust normally located beneath infested wood. Woodworm infestations should be treated by expert pest control pros. It may also be necessary to have a structural survey completed as woodworms are generally an indicator of damp. Even if the woodworms have not caused serious damage themselves, the damp or rotten wood that they live in may cause a structural problem in the building.

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