When it comes to safeguarding our most treasured spaces, from centuries-old churches to national museums and libraries, traditional pest control methods don’t always fit the bill. Harsh chemicals can damage delicate artifacts, disrupt day-to-day operations, and even put human health at risk.
That’s why we are proud to offer a ground-breaking solution: biological woodworm control using beneficial insects.
Our innovative treatment introduces Spathius exarator, a parasitic wasp that naturally targets wood-boring beetle larvae (specifically Anobium punctatum, the common furniture beetle). This eco-friendly method provides long-term woodworm control, without toxic chemicals or invasive treatments.
Unlike traditional woodworm treatments, our service:
Requires no downtime or building closures
Leaves no residue, odours, or environmental hazards
Is safe for people, pets, and the public
Is ideal for on-site application, even in the most delicate environments
Historic Estates & Manor Houses: Preserving listed buildings and heritage woodwork
Churches & Religious Buildings: Where respect for materials and structure is paramount
Museums & Galleries: Protecting priceless collections without chemical exposure
Libraries & Archives: Maintaining the integrity of timber shelving, flooring, and fixtures
Hotels, Offices & Commercial Properties: Offering discreet, non-disruptive treatments
This parasitic wasp solution reduces woodworm activity by up to 90%, establishing a self-sustaining line of defence that’s both natural and cost-effective. Measuring just 2–3mm in length, these tiny wasps are unobtrusive, silent, and entirely harmless to people.
This isn’t just pest control, it’s a solution, delivered in a way that protects both property and planet.
Whether you manage a national trust estate, a city library, or a period hotel, Vergo’s biological woodworm treatment offers a safe and sustainable path forward. Contact us to arrange a consultation or learn more about our eco-friendly pest solutions.
