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 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.

Carpet beetle belongs to the same family of beetles classified as dermestids. They are commonly found in regions such as attics, basements, warehouses, museums and other places where food is accessible. Though carpet beetle adults do not necessarily feed on carpets and other related materials, they could fly going outdoors searching for nectar and pollen from flowers. Whereas their larvae can thrive inside feeding mostly on any cloth materials they could find.

Carpet beetles are capable of wearing out clothing materials, carpets and rugs for they are fed on that material aside, from dead insect carcasses.

Comparing the carpet beetle larvae and adult, the creatures are more of a nuisance than the adult. Since adult carpet beetles are mainly attracted to lights and fly to go outdoors to seek out pollen and nectar.

Adult carpet beetles are a nuisance but because of their nature, they are attracted to lights and often 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.

The cycle of carpet beetle larvae usually takes approximately nine months in order to mature 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 approximately 0.5 to 1mm in size. The eggs can hatch into larvae in 2 weeks.
