Carpet Beetles Pest Control

Have you ever noticed some very small crawlers parading in rugs? If so, what you see is a carpet beetle. They are tiny pests that lurk and destroy carpets, fabrics and sometimes feed on dead insects. They also burrow in clothing or items made of fur, silk and feathers and hide in decorative items made in horns and bones. These creepy crawlers are often within 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 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 under the carpet and carpets and feeding on it.

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

Preventing a carpet beetle can be achieved with the help of pest management services. They will provide the right solution to manage and control these tiny and annoying pests.

Signs of Infestation

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

Whereas, the adult can both live indoor and outside and has the capability of laying eggs anywhere else.

Adult carpet beetles are a nuisance too, however, due to their nature, they are drawn to lights and often fly out of the house in search of pollen and nectar. An infestation is positive when the sighting of carpet beetles are evident in indoors and generally indicates that their eggs and larvae are also present within the area.

The cycle of carpet beetle larvae usually takes approximately nine months so as to grow and become a complete-grown adult. During spring and summer, female adults can put 25 to a hundred eggs, called white or translucent and are about 0.5 to 1mm in size. The eggs can hatch into larvae in 2 weeks.
