Woodworm Treatment
A radical breakthrough in wood preservation
has been made by the introduction of Sovereign's FLX Micro Emulsions.
Sovereign FLX does not use a conventional insecticide (such
as pyrethroids) which attack an insect's central nervous system
but incorporates Flurox™ an insect growth inhibitor. FLX with
Flurox has a fundamentally different mode of action it prevents
the exoskeleton (or hard outer skin) of the insect developing
thus stopping its life cycle. It is therefore safe to humans
and mammals and is available exclusively to the UK Remedial
Wood Preservation Industry
 .
We carry out treatment on residential
premises, listed/historic buildings and commercial properties.
What is Woodworm?
Wood worm is a woodboring insect which damage
and weakens the structure of the timber. They invade and consume
the wood by laying eggs on or in the wood leaving tunnels once
they reached maturity. Their life span is from 10 months to
11 years.
The amount of damage caused by woodworm depends on the kind
of species and the type of wood. The sooner woodworm is identified
and treated the better.
You may find one or more of the signs of woodworm infestation
Small round holes in your wood
Fine powdery dust around the holes
Crumbly edges to boards/joints
Adult beetles emerging from the wholes/around the premises.
There are four types/species of the UK:
Common Furniture Beetle - attacks softwood
House Longhorne Beetle – attacks softwood only
Powderpost beetle – attacks wide pored hardwood such ash, elm
and oak
Deathwatch Beetle – can cause severe damage to European hardwoods
such as oak, ash and chestnut
We can visit you and carry out a detailed inspection
and report. Then, at a time convenient to you and/or your business
we can eradicate your woodworm.
