Fungal decay, commonly known as dry rot, poses a significant threat to the structural integrity of timber in buildings. Rubix Pest Management offers expert fungal decay treatment services across Sydney, ensuring your property remains safe and structurally sound.

Understanding Fungal Decay

Fungal decay occurs when wood-destroying fungi, such as dry rot, attack timber structures. These fungi thrive in damp, poorly ventilated areas, breaking down the wood's cellulose and lignin, leading to weakening and potential collapse.

Common Signs of Fungal Decay

Musty or earthy odour

Discolouration or staining on wooden surfaces

Crumbly or spongy texture in timber

Visible fungal fruiting bodies (mushrooms or conks)

Presence of greyish or white strands (mycelium)
