Borer Control in Melbourne — Quick Answer
T47 Pest Control treats wood borer infestations across Melbourne homes. Borers tunnel into timber framing, floorboards, and furniture, weakening structures over time. We identify the borer species, treat affected timber with targeted insecticides, and apply preventive coatings to stop re-infestation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know if I have borers?
- Look for small round exit holes (1–3mm) in timber, fine powdery dust (frass) below holes, and weakened or crumbling wood. Active infestations may also produce faint ticking sounds.
- Can borers cause structural damage?
- Yes. Prolonged borer activity weakens load-bearing timber. Early treatment is essential. We recommend a structural engineer assessment if significant damage is found.
