Preventing Woodworms Properly
Woodworm in Bristol Weston Super-Mare is the common term for a number of wood boring insects. There are many different species that feed off of the cellulose in wood leaving tunnels behind. The tunnels are unsightly, but they also have more damaging effects than just unsightliness. The lifecycle of a woodworm can range anywhere from ten months to 11 years and can cause a large amount of damage in their wake.

If left without treatment the damage can be irreversible and the wood can be totally eaten through. In order for a home to completely get rid of the woodworm infestation it is recommended to have professionals survey the damage.
