Woodworm treatment in West London

A woodworm is the wood-eating larva of many species of beetle and in the UK there are four different species:

• the common furniture beetle
• the deathwatch beetle
• the house longhorn beetle
• the powderpost beetle

All of these four species will invade and eat all kinds of furniture from skirting boards to wardrobes and many more.
It is the larva that causes the pin headed holes in the wood. When they reach maturity they simply leave.

In the past few years we had an increase in the woodworm treatments with many more customers reporting this issue and this can only mean that the issue is on the increase.The signs of a woodworm infestation:

• Adult beetles emerging from the wood surface.
• Small piles of dust on the wood surface.
• The wood can sometimes be crumbly or soft.
• Small pin headed holes dotted around the wood surface.
