"Welcome to Flourish and Blotts Bookshop. We aren't serving any customers at the moment...we need to tend to an outbreak of bookworms. But please come back soon."
— Flourish and Blotts saleswoman[src]

A bookworm is a general term for any insect known to deliberately cause damage to books, such as the booklouse or common furniture beetle.[2] At some point in 1991, Flourish and Blotts was forced to close shop for a time to tend to an outbreak of bookworms.[1]
