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 destroy carpets, fabrics and sometimes feed on dead insects. They also burrow in clothes 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 classified as dermestids. They are commonly found in areas such as attics, basements, warehouses, museums and other places where food is accessible. Though carpet beetle adults do not necessarily feed carpets and other related materials, they could fly going outdoors searching for nectar and pollen from flowers. Whereas their larvae can thrive inside feeding mostly on any fabric materials they could find.
Preventing a carpet beetle can be achieved with the assistance of pest control services. We’ll provide the right solution to manage and control these tiny and annoying pests.
In the event that you think that there might 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 pest species and will recommend tailored-fit remedy to completely eradicate the infestation.
Because they mainly 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 within the house.
That’s why it is important to continually clean the household area and preserve items to keep these away pests from brooding inflicting damages to your properties.
Adult carpet beetles are a nuisance too, however, because of their nature, they are drawn to lights and often fly out of the house in search of pollen and nectar. An infestation is positive when the sighting of carpet beetles are evident in indoors and generally indicates that their eggs and larvae are also present inside the area.
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 put 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.
Generally, fabric pests like carpeting beetles deemed huge nuisance and can cause considerable damage in the family. When the source of infestation can not be located, it’s a chance to grow bigger and spread over a short time period. DIY methods can not guarantee 100 Percent eradication because it’s known that carpet beetles are very difficult to manage. Hence, homeowners seek help from pest control professionals to deal with the circumstance.
If you’re suspecting a carpet beetle infestation, consulting a pest control service is crucial. Doing a DIY will not guarantee a complete eradication of the infestation but just for a short term. In fact, fabric pest can be quite difficult to handle, hence, only licensed pest technicians understand how to handle such situations.
While treatment of infestations is abandoned with specialists, 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.
