Specialist Gatley Woodworm Treatment
A woodworm infestation will immediately set alarm bells ringing for the person who discovers it. Indeed, the visible symptoms of woodworm generally mean that the pests have been in the wood for quite some time; possibly even up to several years. The good news, however, is that they can be dealt with by Young's Pest Control.
Treatment for woodworm removal depends on which stage the woodworm infestation is at. The infestation will generally be at one of the four main stages:
- Eggs
- Larva
- Pupa
- Adult beetles
Home treatment techniques, such as Gatley woodworm treatment spray over the counter, are insecticide heavy and will prove largely ineffective. Additionally, you may use Gatley woodworm removal treatment furniture or flooring products and end up killing the beetles, but not taking care of the larva...meaning you'll simply be forever repeating the cycle.
The safest and most effective option is to call in a professional company such as Young's who will be able to provide a bespoke treatment for woodworm based on a thorough check of the infestation.
The signs of a woodworm infestation are varied but will be noticeable. They include:
-
Woodworm Damage
Exit holes in wood
- Tunnelling throughout wood
- Fresh wood dust below the infected timber
- Weak and damaged flooring
- Larvae and eggs on the wood (harder to spot)
- Dead beetles
- Adult beetle movement throughout Spring and Summer
The immediate effect of an infestation is the inconvenience; however, the long term effect of these pests can be serious structural damage, particularly in older houses with more wood in their structure. Woodworm can be attracted by any manner of different woods, so no one person is more or less likely to come across these. They are simply attracted to wood; it provides a warm, safe and dry environment for them to thrive in, and if the circumstances are right, they can stay for years.
