Woodworms aren’t very common in the UK, but an infestation can be very destructive. Woodworm refers to the larvae stage of several different species of beetle, the most typical 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 eat the wood around them, which is what causes 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 in general leave the area to breed. However, they can return to lay eggs. In extreme cases, these insects can damage structural components of a building and this can have severe consequences.

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

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