Professional woodworm treatment you can rely on
Woodworm pest control involves the use of specialised techniques and treatments to eliminate wood-boring insects. The larvae of woodworms tunnel through wood and feed on it, causing damage to wooden structures, furniture, and other wooden items.
It may be necessary to apply insecticides as sprays or inject them directly into the wood, depending on the severity of the infestation. By injecting into the wood, larvae can be reached deeper into the wood.
It may be necessary to fumigate enclosed spaces to treat larger infestations. During fumigation, gaseous insecticides are introduced into space to eliminate woodboring beetles.

Woodworm Control FAQ
Where do woodworms come from?
Woodworm is typically caused by high moisture content in timber, which adult female beetles seek in the summer months to lay eggs. Afterwards, the larvae burrow, and when they emerge, they leave behind the exit holes you see commonly.
How do you get rid of woodworm?
Woodworm is most commonly treated by spraying affected timbers. Certain woodworm beetles, such as the Deathwatch beetle, require more intensive treatments involving penetrating insecticidal gel to eliminate the infestation.
How much does woodworm treatment cost?
The price is based on the extent and size of the infestation on your property. You'll need a professional survey to know the extent of the damage. You can expect to pay between £200 and £500 for professional woodworm removal.
How do professionals treat woodworm?
An experienced and fully trained surveyor will inspect your property. You need a thorough woodworm survey to determine whether treatment is required. The sprayed solution into the timber is highly effective and will prevent any further infestations from occurring.
Can I treat woodworm myself?
Common furniture beetles can be easily treated by brushing, dipping, or spraying with a Permethrin-based woodworm treatment on all timbers infested with woodworm. In addition, you should treat any nearby timbers to prevent future outbreaks.
