Review Ahmedabad coverageTimber pest activity
Protect timber from wood-borer activity.
Show us the holes, powder and affected timber. We will inspect the activity and explain whether a treatment recommendation applies.
Australian Pest Control uses practical inspection experience to identify wood-borer signs, understand the affected timber scope and explain appropriate treatment and observation steps.
Service scope
Understanding the problem

The applicable service path depends on the activity observed, the property context and what can be assessed within the agreed scope.
What to observe
Signs to look for
- Small holes appearing in furniture, fixtures or structural timber without a clear cause.
- Fine powder or timber debris collecting below affected wooden surfaces or joints.
- Fresh-looking activity appearing in one timber item or across several nearby elements.
Contributing conditions
Why the activity can occur
- Wood-borer activity can be associated with affected timber items or building elements.
- Timber condition, concealed surfaces and the distribution of signs affect the assessed scope.

Questions about Wood Borer Control
Does powder below timber suggest wood-borer activity?
It can be a useful warning sign, but the timber and surrounding evidence should be inspected before the activity and scope are identified.
Should affected furniture be moved before inspection?
Keep the item accessible but avoid moving it through the property unnecessarily until the signs and nearby timber have been assessed.
Is wood-borer work the same as termite treatment?
No. Both can affect timber, but identification, building context and the relevant service recommendation need separate assessment.
