Woodworm is the term used to describe the many different species that target the timber and wood in our homes. It is a common problem across the country, with research revealing that 75% of houses in Britain suffer with woodworm. In Southampton, residents can get their infestation removed with the help of our professionals.
Floor joists, staircases and roof timbers are among the objects that tend to be affected by woodworm. Southampton buildings that contain any form of new wood are susceptible to this type of infestation. The common furniture beetle, known as anobium punctatum, tends to be the main culprit in these incidents. The female beetles lay eggs within the cracks and holes of timber, and once the eggs hatch, the larvae attacks the wood.
The difficulty with this problem is that there is no visible sign of it occurring, and over the course of 3 years, the timber in your property will suffer damage. The cycle is repeated when the adult beetle bites through the surface and flies away to mate before returning and laying more eggs. Southampton, woodworm is a significant problem, but our team are here to help.
Our surveyors here at Insite Southern are trained and experienced in eradicating woodworm in Southampton. We will identify the extent of the infestation before spraying the infestation with chemicals. In some cases, our team will use gels or rods to remove the problem, and we may apply specialist timber paste to prevent the infestation from returning.
