Belonging to the same family of beetles, the dermestids, these insects are generally found in areas such as warehouses, attics, museums and other locations where food is accessible. On the other hand, though adult carpet beetles do not 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 beneath the carpet and carpets and feeding on it.
