Active Woodworm

We do a lot of woodworm infestation surveys and quite often we get asked if the woodworm is active I have attached some pictures I took yesterday from a property in Edinburgh where you can clearly see the woodworm is active.

What you are looking for is fresh flight holes and sawdust which you can clearly see in these pictures, when we find active woodworm as is shown in the pictures we treat the timbers using insecticidal fluid which is applied using a  high-pressure spray timbers that are excessively damaged in some instances need to be replaced that can be determined at survey.

If woodworm is highlighted on your Home Report then get in touch with us we can help by treating the timbers and producing a report carry out the treatments quickly and produce Guarantees this can all be sent to the RICS Surveyor and it will enable the surveyor to reduce the number 3 on your Home Report to a 1.
