Dampguard Woodworm Eradication:

'Woodworm' is the general term used to described common furniture beetle damage. This is the most common damage encountered in buildings. Also known as Deathwatch beetle, it is almost always encountered in old buildings.

Wood can be protected from infestation and existing infestations by treatment with chemicals and solvents designed to give maximum penetration of the wood and can be applied by brushing, spraying or pressure-injection.

The best time to apply insecticides to wood is in spring when the insects are near the surface of the wood, just before they emerge, and so are more accessible to the insecticide.

The life cycle of most wood-boring beetles lasts more than one year, so that to achieve complete eradication it is essential to repeat the treatment each year(and throughout the year) until signs of the attack disappear.
