If you happen to notice tiny creepy crawlers parading beneath the carpet, carpet or even discovering them in your cupboard, then you are taking a look at carpet beetles. These creatures are considered household bugs that lurk and destroy fabric materials such as carpets, rugs, tapestries and items which are made in wool, furs, feathers and silk. Their infestation is usually located in attics or basements where the environment is beneficial to them.
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 places where food is accessible. Though carpet beetle adults don’t necessarily feed on carpets and other related materials, they could fly going outdoors looking for nectar and pollen from flowers. Whereas their larvae can flourish inside feeding mostly on any cloth 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 but these pests are brown in colour. These creatures are approximately ⅛ to 1/4 of an inch size and has a dome-shaped carapace.
In the event that you think that there may be a carpet beetle infestation, seeking the help of a pest technician is a wise decision. Our authorised pest experts will assess the site, identify the insect species and will recommend tailored-fit treatment to completely eradicate the infestation.
Since cloth and animal products are their principal source of food, carpet beetle larvae can thrive in households even without the assistance of adults. Whereas, the adult carpet beetles can live off and fly around, laying their eggs elsewhere such as in furniture, clothing, rugs or infested items brought inside the house.
Comparing 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 outside to seek out pollen and nectar.
Unlike any other tiny pests’ life span, carpet beetles are exceptional. The larvae can pretty much live and develop up to 9 months and is based as well to outside factors that can impact their growth.
Carpet beetles have a fairly much longer life span. Its larvae usually takes 9 months to grow into full-grown adult. During the spring and summer seasons, the female adult can lay between 25 to 100 eggs. The eggs can hatch into larvae within 2 weeks.
Ignoring fabric pests such as carpet beetles can deem widespread harm to families. When left untreated, an infestation can grow over a brief time period. Controlling the infestation can be achieved with success through specialist inspection and regular cleaning of the household and the surrounding region.
If you’re 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 only for a short term. In reality, fabric pest can be quite difficult to manage, hence, only licensed pest technicians understand how to manage such situations.
While treatment of infestations is abandoned with professionals, 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.
