European House Borer
European House Borers & Their Treatments
Where are these found?
Recently Stewarts was informed by the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Housing and Works that the European House Borer (EHB) has been found in some hills areas.
Sixteen properties between Darlington and Chidlow from Mahogany Creek to Parkerville and trees in Ellenbrook and Gnangara have been reported to have been infested with the wood borer.
The Department of Housing and Works has produced a building note on EHB to advise building surveyors and local authorities about presence of the pest in Mundaring Shire. This has been updated to include the Ellenbrook area in the Swan Shire.
What signs do you look for?
Things to look for are oval shaped holes measuring about 5mm to 10mm. Sometimes the dust and droppings can be seen on the floor below affected timber where the adult has emerged. If you are suspicious or would like to know more information contact the Plant Pest Hotline on 1800 084 881
or go to www.ehb.wa.gov.au.
Otherwise contact Stewarts Pest Control to make an appointment for a full visual timber pest inspection.
