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 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 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 do not necessarily feed carpets and other relevant materials, they could fly going outdoors looking for nectar and pollen from flowers. Whereas their larvae can flourish inside feeding mostly on any fabric materials they can 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. Often times, they are mistaken as a ladybug however, these pests are brownish in colour. These creatures are about ⅛ to 1/4 of an inch dimensions and has a dome-shaped carapace.
These creepy crawlers are very difficult to handle, hence, if there is a suspected infestation, calling the help of a professional is much needed.
Since they mostly feed on organic thing, carpet beetle’s larvae can flourish 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 house.
Thus, be cautious to regularly clean the home and maintain things spot free and well-maintained to keep these pestering creatures brooding within your household.
Adult carpet beetles are a nuisance too, however, due to 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 that their eggs and larvae are also present within the region.
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 approximately 0.5 to 1mm in size. The eggs can hatch into larvae in two weeks.
Ignoring fabric pests like carpet beetles can deem widespread damage to families. When left untreated, an infestation can grow over a short period of time. Controlling the infestation can be accomplished with success through expert inspection and regular cleaning of the household and the surrounding region.
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 since carpet beetles are tough to deal with. Our authorised pest experts will sort out these cloth pests with the perfect treatment plan.
While treatment of infestations is abandoned with professionals, here are the basic things you can do to manage and restrain 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.
