Beetles are the types of things you also find around rotting wood,

No you don't. There are very few UK beetle species that will be
attracted by rotting wood (meaning indoor construction timber, not
treestumps). It'll attract woodlice like a magnet, but not beetles

OH OH!!! You'd better the beetles that then. There have been many
sightings of foreign imports to this country in the last few decades, and
they all seem to be thriving.

http://www.kendall-bioresearch.co.uk/woodworm.htm gives a few bits of info'
on these bugs, and the whole site has many pages full of the different
creepy crawlies you'll find on our shores.
