"Permethrin based
Soluguard by Safeguard can be purchased on Amazon and can be brushed on. However the user should read the label for any substances they could have an allergic reaction to such as, benzisothiazolone."

"Both are good, it has to be soaked into the wood so dont use high pressure or rush the job. We treat woodworm at £10per sqm"
