A woodworm infestation can take hold in any home with wood features, including most UK properties.

By employing experts, they can be sure that they will get the proper Maghull woodworm treatment to destroy them. Young’s Pest Control is a company that can provide this treatment, and customers are welcome to contact us for a consultation.

Basic Woodworm Information

Woodworm is not insects in their own right. Instead, they are the wood-eating grub stage in the normal development of a few types of beetles. The adult beetles mate to produce eggs from which the grubs emerge and bore inside a wooden object. Woodworms can survive for several years before pupating to create an adult beetle.

Types of Beetle

Woodborer, Oligomerus brunneus, extreme close-uptingThe insect most likely to be the cause of a woodworm infestation in a UK home is the Common Furniture Beetle. While its name might suggest that Maghull woodworm treatment spray would need to be aimed at furniture, this beetle can and does attack any wood features in a home. Other species with a woodworm grub stage in their development include Deathwatch, Powderpost, and House Longhorn Beetles. Therefore, the Maghull woodworm treatment for furniture pieces or other timber items needed is dependent on which of the beetle species is causing the problems. Consequently, it is essential to bring in a woodworm removal expert, as they can accurately identify the different species and, in this way, decide which Maghull woodworm treatment spray will be the most effective to use.

Potential Damage

A woodworm infestation has the potential to cause significant damage to any timber it attacks. Much of this takes place internally as the woodworm bore tunnels while they feed. It only becomes evident that damage occurs when adult beetles emerge from the pupa and create exit holes on the wood surface to free themselves. If sufficient numbers of woodworm attack an object, the tunnels they leave can weaken it. This is a cause for concern if structural features in a home are affected and treatment for woodworm removal needs to be put in place rapidly to stop the damage from worsening.
