Woodworm can cause serious damage to wooden structures and furniture. It's important to take action promptly if you suspect a woodworm infestation. Anticimex offers several effective control methods tailored to the specific situation of a building.
The first step in woodworm control is a thorough inspection. This inspection is carried out by certified wood experts who assess the situation on-site. They identify the species of woodworm and the extent of the damage, which is crucial for effective treatment.
This organization has several control methods, including:
Wet treatment: this involves impregnating a pesticide into the wood, which is effective against active pests.
Fumigation treatment: This method is suitable for buildings where demolition work is undesirable. The gas kills all life stages of woodworm.
Pressure-free injection technique: specially developed for monumental buildings, this technique prevents further damage to the structure.
Besides control, prevention is crucial. Regular inspections can help prevent future woodworm problems. This is especially relevant for historic buildings, where the integrity of the wood is crucial.
