Enter our site H	WOOD-BORING INSECTS The Problem: 'Woodworm' is the general term used to described Common furniture beetle damage, Anobium Common furniture beetle punctatum. This is the most common damage encountered in buildings. Deathwatch beetle, Xestobium rufovillosum, is almost always encountered in old building where it is mostly found attacking oak. Other 'woodworm' can be found in buildings, the holes of all showing where beetles have emerged from the wood. However, not all 'woodworm' needs treatment. Our Answer: First we establish that the attack is active, dead or the result of one of the innocuous wood boring insects that doesn't require treatment. We also ensure any affected timbers are structurally sound. If active then we will carefully apply the most appropriate low risk preservative to control and eradicate the infestation, again retaining as much of the original timber as possible. Our common sense approach will minimise disruption to the occupants thereby ensuring quick re-occupancy and a safe, comfortable environment. All our work is covered by our 20 guarantee which can be further backed up by a GPT Insured Guarantee.
