Some homeowners only add one or two pieces of antique furniture as the focus, bringing a lot of lines or interest to the room.

The Woodworm is the larvae of the beetle. it is not really a wi worm.
The home of the woodworm boar is deep in the wood of the furniture, not limited to antique wood or antique furniture.
Woodworms will go where they can hide, where there is a lot of food, and it may be furniture that you have found new.
With the growth of the larvae of the wood worm, they should soon leave the small area inside the wood.
The woodworms began to drill out of the woods.
When they left the furniture, they left a small round hole in the furniture, the first sign of the wood worm on your beautiful table.
Unfortunately, as their population grows, they will try to find new places of life and they will not just stay in one piece of furniture.
The new living space can be other furniture in the home, wood cabinets, doors, decorative shapes, and even Wall nails and ceiling beams.
They are not special and they will look for other wooden houses.
Normally, wood worms are not dangerous for people, but they can pose a risk to the health and structural integrity of your home, especially if your wall post or ceiling pallet is infected on a large scale.
Another danger they bring is that they will weaken the wooden furniture to the point of breaking, which can be dangerous for people sitting in a chair.

If the wood worm killer enters the spray bottle as an item to be used, please spray all the surfaces of the furniture to the fullest.

If woodworm treatment is the type that must be mixed, please apply a thick coating on all surfaces with a brush.
In order for the furniture to be effective, the furniture needs to be thoroughly coated with pesticides.
Too light coating may make them dig deeper in the wood and go out again.
Let the wooden furniture stay outdoors for at least 24 hours before bringing it back to the house.
Many people who kill forest worms may suggest less than 24 hours, but safety is always better than sorry.
