The common furniture beetle or common house borer (Anobium punctatum) is a woodboring beetle originally from Europe [1] but now distributed worldwide. In the larval stage it bores in wood and feeds upon it. Adult Anobium punctatum measure 2.7–4.5 millimetres (0.11–0.18 in) in length.
Wood affected by woodworm. Signs of woodworm usually consist of holes in the wooden item, with live infestations showing powder (faeces), known as frass, around the holes.. The size of the holes varies, but they are typically 1 to 1.5 millimetres (5 ⁄ 128 to 1 ⁄ 16 in) in diameter for the most common household species, although they can be much larger in the case of the house longhorn beet
Fragment of a broomstick affected by woodworm. Woodboring beetles are commonly detected a few years after new construction. The lumber supply may have contained wood infected with beetle eggs or larvae, and since beetle life cycles can be one or more years, several years may pass before the presence of beetles becomes noticeable.
Common names include pine sawyer, western pine sawyer, spined woodborer, and ponderosa pine borer. [2] A taxonomic synonym is Ergates spiculatus. [2] This beetle species develops on fallen ponderosa pines and Douglas firs. [3] T. spiculatus is the largest species of wood boring beetle in Colorado. [3]
Wood-boring insects can degrade the wood aesthetically by boring holes, and also indirectly as vectors for fungi and nematodes which can cause structural damage. [ 5 ] Allison et al. [ 11 ] extrapolated information from one mill in southern British Columbia to suggest that wood-boring insects could cause an annual loss of US$43.6 million per ...
A small study found honey may be a minimally effective cough treatment due to "well-established antioxidant and antimicrobial effects" and a tendency to soothe irritated tissue. [21] A Cochrane review found there was weak evidence to recommend for or against the use of honey in children as a cough remedy. [22]
Xestobium plumbeum Hedobia imperialis, Fan-bearing wood borer. Ptinidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Bostrichoidea. There are at least 220 genera and 2,200 described species in Ptinidae worldwide. [1] The family includes spider beetles and deathwatch beetle, [2] as well as the cigarette, drugstore and furniture beetles.
Coal-tar creosote is the most widely used wood treatment today; both industrially, processed into wood using pressure methods such as "full-cell process" or "empty-cell process", and more commonly applied to wood through brushing. In addition to toxicity to fungi, insects, and marine borers, it serves as a natural water repellent.
