Woodworm is caused when the larvae of beetles feed on timber structures and surfaces. When fresh bore holes are visible, chemical treatment is required to eradicate and prevent further infestation.
There are a number of species of wood boring beetles, the treatment is dependant on the severity of the infestation. All chemicals used for this treatment are water based and environmentally friendly. For more information on the treatments, please refer to the Wykamol website.

Wooden structures and timber buildings are often at threat from decay caused by excessive moisture in the fabric of the building. Dry rot can cause serious structural problems and should be treated as soon as possible. If your property is not treated the house or structure can become unstable and in more serious cases it could become un-inhabitable and possibly collapse.
