WOOD BORER
Wood Borers
What are WoodBorers?
Wood borers are a kind of beetle that munch on wood and timber furniture. There are various types of wood borers found all around Australia. While some pose as a threat, others are simply a nuisance to have around.
It all begins when a female borer lays her eggs in/on wood. Soon later, the larvae hatch and start digging holes into the structure. When the larvae mature into an adult, they are ready to leave the item and fly away, leaving behind exit holes in whatever is left of your timber item.
Unfortunately, most owners only learn of their presence after they have matured and caused significant damage.
