Have you ever noticed some tiny 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 present in attics and basements and nestled in rugs, tapestries or floor to wall and wall-to-wall carpeting.
Often mistaken as a ladybug, these creatures are little than the latter, about ⅛ to 1/4 of an inch long, with white, dark colored and dark fixes in their carapace. They may be insignificant, however, they pose as an annoyance in the household for they are effective at destroying materials and furniture made from organic matter.
Carpet beetles are capable of wearing out clothing materials, carpets and rugs for they are fed on that material aside, from dead insect carcasses. Quite often, they are confused as a ladybug but these pests are brownish in colour. These creatures are approximately ⅛ to 1/4 of an inch size and has a dome-shaped carapace.
If you believe that there might be a carpet beetle infestation, consulting with a pest control service is crucial. Our Licensed pest technicians will determine the type of fabric pests are invading your home and come up with the perfect treatment plan.
Because they feed on cloth and animal matters, carpet beetle larvae can thrive in houses even with no adults. Whereas, adults fly and lay their eggs on furnishings, clothing, or rugs or even on infested items brought in the home.
Assessing the carpet beetle larvae and adult, the larvae are more of a nuisance than the adult. Since adult carpet beetles are mainly attracted to lights and fly to go outdoors to seek pollen and nectar.
Adult carpet beetles are a nuisance too, however, because of their nature, they are drawn to lights and often fly out of the house seeking pollen and nectar. An infestation is positive when the sighting of carpet beetles are obvious in indoors and generally indicates their eggs and larvae will also be present within the area.
The cycle of carpet beetle larvae usually takes about nine months in order to mature and become a complete-grown adult. During summer and spring, female adults can lay 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.
Ignoring fabric pests such as carpeting beetles can deem widespread harm to families. When left untreated, an infestation can grow over a brief time period. Controlling the infestation can be accomplished with success through expert inspection and regular cleaning of the family and the surrounding area.
If you are suspecting a carpet beetle infestation, consulting a pest control service is a must. Doing a DIY will not guarantee a complete eradication of the infestation but just for a short term. In reality, fabric pest can be quite difficult to manage, hence, only licensed pest technicians know how to manage such situations.
While treatment of infestations is abandoned with specialists, here are the basic things you can do to manage and control the carpet beetle:
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.
