woodworm in bathroom

I am getting the bathroom replaced and the tradesperson is
about to put in a shower tray but he says he
sees signs of woodworm. He is going to get his mate to check it out
and this may suggest a need for
woodworm treatment before they go ahead and put the new shower tray and shower
unit in. Im a bit confused. Is treatment
necessary ? does killing the woodworm
strengthen the flooring. If they only treat the area where the shower tray is
going and there is woodworm elsewhere in the house , how will this stop the woodworm
crawling to where the shower tray is . I
have attached a picture of the wood from
the floor . how do they know that the woodworm is there and hasn’t gone

Flight holes are left when the wood worm has left. There can still be grubs inside eating away at the timber.0
