I am unable to infest my buildings on my map, I do not know what triggers or things I need to do. Can someone please help me with this. It would be great.
If you're purely wanting the infested look, most terran building actors are set up so that adding the behavior "colony infestation" will make them look infested.
1. Using triggers to apply it on a per unit basis whenever you want to.
Go to triggers (F6). Use an existing trigger such as Melee Initialization, or create a new trigger. Make sure there's an event such as "Map Initialization", Under actions add "Add Behavior (Player)". Choose the "Colony Infestation" behavior. Note this behavior may only be available if you are using single player dependencies (rather than multiplayer dependencies). Then choose the unit you want to give the behavior to.
2. Add the behavior to a whole unit type in the data module.
Open the data module (F7). Go to units tab. If you don't see it, click the plus and find it under game data. Find a unit type you want to make infested. Go to its behaviors and add colony infestation. Then all those units will have it.

Sorry about the late response, but where would I do that? (I am fairly new to the editor)
Here's two ways you can do it.
1. Using triggers to apply it on a per unit basis whenever you want to.
