Timber Borer Treatment in Newcastle
Timber Borers are a known issue in Newcastle. Universal Pest Control has been protecting local homes and businesses for over 20 years.
Timber borers are wood-eating beetles whose larvae tunnel through structural and decorative timber. Left untreated, they can seriously weaken floors, beams and furniture over years.
Different borer species affect different timbers — some attack only damp or decayed wood, others (like the furniture beetle) can re-infest dry structural timber year after year, progressively weakening floors and beams.
Newcastle's mix of older inner-city homes, newer estates and coastal properties means pest pressures vary street by street. From German cockroaches in Hamilton kitchens to webbing spiders in Merewether eaves, our local technicians know exactly what's active in your area.
Signs of timber borers in Newcastle
- Small round exit holes in timber
- Fine powdery frass (bore dust)
- Tunnelled or weakened timber
- Dead beetles near windows
