Have you ever noticed some very small crawlers parading in rugs? 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 bones and horns. These creepy crawlers are often present in attics and basements and nestled in rugs, tapestries or floor to wall and wall-to-wall carpeting.
Carpet beetle belongs to the same family of beetles categorized as dermestids. They are commonly found in regions such as attics, basements, warehouses, museums and other locations where food is accessible. Though carpet beetle adults don’t feed on carpets and other related materials, they can fly going outdoors looking for nectar and pollen from flowers. Whereas their larvae can thrive inside feeding mostly on any cloth materials they can find.
Carpet beetles are capable of sporting out clothing materials, rugs and carpets for they are fed on that material aside, from dead insect carcasses. They are often confused as lady bugs but somehow they’re smaller in size, roughly 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 assistance of pest management services. They’ll provide the right solution to manage and control these tiny and annoying pests.
Because they mostly consume fabric and animal products, carpet beetle larvae can thrive in homes even without the adults. Whereas, adults fly and lay their eggs on furniture, clothing, or rugs and even on infested items brought inside the home.
Assessing the carpet beetle larvae and adult, the larvae are more of a nuisance than the adult. Since adult carpet beetles are primarily 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 frequently fly out of the house seeking pollen and nectar. But, an infestation is confirmed when sighting of carpet beetles are inside and usually suggests that their eggs and larvae are somewhere in the house.
The life cycle of carpet beetle larvae ordinarily takes 9 months to develop to a fully-developed adult. During summer and spring, female adults can lay 25 to 100 eggs, they seem white or translucent and are approximately 0.5 to 1mm in size. The eggs can incubate into creatures in about 14 days.
Ignoring fabric pests such as carpeting beetles can exude widespread damage to families. When left untreated, an infestation can grow over a brief period of time. Controlling the infestation can be accomplished with success through expert inspection and regular cleaning of the family and the surrounding area.
If you think you have an infestation in your area, seek the aid of pest management experts immediately. Doing a DIY carpet beetle control doesn’t guarantee complete treatment because carpet beetles are hard to deal with. Our authorised pest experts will sort out these fabric pests with the right treatment plan.
While treatment of infestations is left with experts, there are simple things which you can do to prevent carpet beetles in invading your home:
Will the gel that you use on the inside of my cupboards cause any contamination to the food inside?
We apply the gel only to places within the cupboard where insects are found. This means it will only be applied to cracks, crevices, and hinges.
Am I likely to see the return of pests after the treatment?
It is possible that insects such as ants, spiders or cockroaches may venture inside your property after the treatment has been completed. However, there is a very high likelihood that they will have crossed treated areas and will die very soon afterward.
How often should I call on your services for treatments?
We would recommend that treatments are carried out once or twice a year depending on the environmental conditions.
