Signs of a woodworm infestation
Woodworm infestations begin when adult beetles lay their eggs on, or just below the surface of wooden items. The larvae then burrow into the wood, where they feed and grow over several years before emerging as adult beetles. Signs of a woodworm infestation include:
- Small round holes in the wood
- Fine, powdery dust around these holes (known as frass)
- Crumbling edges to boards and joists
- Adult beetles emerging from the holes
Understanding these signs can help in early detection and treatment of woodworm infestations.
