Wood Borer Management
Wood borers also called as Powder Post Beetle. Majority of Indian households’ furniture are made of wood. They infest the internal structure of wooden material and convert it into powder form. The minute holes created by the Wood Borer from where the yellowish powder falls, is the sign of infestation. Wood Borers are insects which damage timber by tunnelling during the grub stage for food, or leaving a flight hole on the surface of the wood after becoming an adult (beetle). These holes or “pin holes” are quite visible and are usually the first signs of an active infestation of wood borer.
Wood Borer Control
The control and treatment of borer must take into consideration the life cycle of the borer larvae which may stay in the wood up to three years. A treatment must be used that is both penetrative and has long lasting residual properties. Having a free inspection is also a good idea. This can help establish the type of wood borer present, extent of infestation and the best solution.
Our technician will clean the surface and inject oil base chemical in to the holes and then spray the chemical on the whole wooden structure.This service is not an odourless treatment.
