Woodworm Treatment Experts in Dorset and Hampshire – Precise identification of infestations, effective treatment solutions, and lasting timber protection
Woodworm is a common problem caused by the larvae of wood-boring beetles that live and feed inside timber. Over time, they create tunnels that weaken wood and can damage furniture, flooring, or structural parts of a building. It often goes unnoticed until visible signs appear on the surface.
Key signs of woodworm:
Small round holes in the wood surface
Fine powdery dust (frass) near the holes
Wood that feels weak, crumbly, or damaged
Occasional tiny beetles near wooden items
If these signs are present, it may indicate an active infestation that needs treatment.
Woodworm infestations are usually caused by conditions that allow wood-boring beetles to lay eggs and their larvae to survive inside timber. The problem often develops in environments where wood is damp, untreated, or poorly maintained.
Main causes of woodworm:
- Damp or humid conditions that attract beetles
- Untreated or unprotected wood
- Poor ventilation in rooms or storage areas
- Old or decaying timber
- Bringing in infested furniture or wood items
