Rescue Your Valuable Woodwork from Internal Damage
Wood borers (powderpost beetles) are infamous for turning beautiful, expensive wooden furniture, beds, and structural timber into fine yellow dust. The adult beetles lay their eggs inside the cracks of the wood. When the larvae hatch, they spend months—sometimes years—eating the wood from the inside out before finally boring a hole to emerge, causing irreversible damage.
Standard pest control sprays do not penetrate wood and are entirely useless against borers. Our Wood Borer treatment involves a specialized chemical formulation that is explicitly designed for timber. We use specialized syringes to inject this chemical directly into the tiny exit holes, targeting the larvae deep inside. We then coat the entire wooden surface with a protective chemical layer to prevent future egg-laying.
Warning Signs of Wood Borers
Yellow Powder (Frass)
Finding small piles of fine, yellowish powder directly underneath your wooden furniture or doors.
Tiny Pin-Holes
Noticing fresh, small, perfectly round holes (exit holes) appearing on the surface of your woodwork.
Ticking Noises
Hearing faint clicking or scratching noises coming from inside the wood during quiet nights.
Our Step-by-Step Treatment Process
Wood Assessment
We carefully inspect your furniture and structural timber to assess the depth and severity of the borer infestation.
Direct Syringe Injection
We painstakingly inject strong borer-specific chemicals directly into every single exit hole to kill the active larvae inside.
Protective Surface Coating
The entire wooden surface is brushed or sprayed with a protective chemical sealant to deter adult beetles from laying new eggs.
