Carpet Beetles Pest Control

Have you ever noticed some very small crawlers parading in carpets? If so, what you see is a carpet beetle. They’re tiny pests that lurk and ruin carpets, fabrics and sometimes feed on dead insects. They also burrow in clothes or items made of fur, feathers and silk and hide in decorative items made in bones and horns. These creepy crawlers are often present in attics and basements and nestled in carpets, tapestries or floor to wall and wall-to-wall carpeting.

Belonging to the same family of beetles, the dermestids, these insects are commonly found in areas such as warehouses, attics, museums and other locations where food is accessible. On the other hand, though adult carpet beetles don’t necessarily feed on fabrics, their larvae do. Adult carpet beetles go out to feed on pollen and nectar from flowers, while the young ones are swarming beneath the carpet and rugs and feeding on it.

Carpet beetles are capable of sporting out clothing materials, carpets and rugs for they are fed on that material aside, from dead insect carcasses. They are often confused as lady bugs but somehow they are smaller in size, roughly ⅛ to 1/4 of an inch. They have white, brown and black patches decorated in their dome-shaped carapace.

These creepy crawlers are quite difficult to manage, hence, if there is a suspected infestation, calling the help of a professional is much needed.

Signs of Infestation

Since they mostly feed on organic thing, carpet beetle’s creatures can flourish in homes even without the adults. Whereas adults fly and lay their eggs on furniture, apparel, or carpets and even on infested items brought inside the house.

That’s why it is important to continually clean the household area and preserve items to keep away these pests from brooding inflicting damages to your possessions.

Adult carpet beetles are a nuisance but because of their nature, they are attracted to lights and frequently fly out of the home seeking pollen and nectar. However, an infestation is confirmed when sighting of carpet beetles are indoors and usually suggests that their eggs and larvae are somewhere in the home.

Throughout spring and summer, they are mostly active especially the female adult that could lay between 25 to 100 eggs. Actually, in just 2 weeks, the eggs can hatch into larvae sand thrive off within its environment.
