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 are 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 horns and bones. These creepy crawlers are often within attics and basements and nestled in rugs, 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 under 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, approximately ⅛ to 1/4 of an inch. They have white, black and brown spots decorated in their dome-shaped carapace.
