House Longhorn Beetle

This species is noteworthy in certain areas as it causes rapid deterioration by eating away timbers internally. The marks this beetle creates look similar to those caused by woodworm but are larger in radius. The beetle is found in roof structures, damaging timbers and putting residents at risk, and can infest most softwoods. Due to the softwood used in their constuction, modern houses are more susceptible. Specialised wood treatments are among the solutions available today.
