The main pests those destroy wood are-

• Pest Control for Wood Borers-

Wood borers turn the wood into powder. These reproduce within the wood. Their larvae eat away the wood while growing up. Wood Borers need to be checked in the beginning only. The wood must be dry. Proper pesticide solution of Borate insecticide should be sprayed over the wooden structure. Fumigation has also proved to be very helpful in controlling Wood Borer.
