Its obvious that if left untreated, woodworm can seriously damage your Bristol property. During the larvae stages they eat through wood as they emerge from your house beams into adulthood. The eggs are laid in cracks around your home furniture, regardless of quality. The popular rough timber finish, that so many homes go for, is a prime spot for woodworm to lay eggs.
Despite common belief, Bristol woodworm can be regularly found in new build residential property as well as the more obvious older buildings. They leave clusters of nail sized holes in all types of wood around your home. Floorboards, structural beams and even your family furniture. Often damage to these wood items happens without the resident being aware of the woodworm infestation.
A Furniture woodworm beetle is one of the more common Bristol pests, white or cream coloured during its larvae stage. This stage lasts for several years, as they bore holes through timber and property until they reach maturity. At which point they will develop in a chamber within the wood near the surface and emerge through the wood as a beetle.
