Carpet Beetles Pest Control

If you happen to notice tiny creepy crawlers parading beneath the carpet, carpet or even finding them in your cupboard, then you’re looking at carpet beetles. These creatures are considered household bugs that lurk and destroy cloth materials such as carpets, rugs, tapestries and items that are made in wool, furs, feathers and silk. Their infestation is usually located in attics or basements where the environment is favourable to them.

Belonging to the same family of beetles, the dermestids, these insects are generally found in areas such as warehouses, attics, museums and other places 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, rugs and carpets for they are fed on that material aside, from dead insect carcasses.
