Woodworm Surveys

Woodworm usually gets into your property either by flying in or from other woodworm infested timber, once they have gained access they can cause severe structural damage and irreversible loss.

The most common wood boring pest (woodworm) in the UK is Anobium punctatum also known as the common furniture beetle. This beetle can infest all kinds of timber from structural timber to furniture, softwoods to hardwoods, painted, varnished or untouched. This woodworm even infests man made products such as plywood, this beetle has no preference on the type of wood it consumes so everything is at risk.

The woodworm makes small holes resembling dart imprints on the surface of the timber, powdery dust and small dark brown beetles all resemble the characteristics of an infestation. Should you notice any of these signs Contact us for a survey or advice.
