Watch Out For Signs Of Carpet Beetles
Carpet beetles are tiny insects that can be difficult to see with the naked eye. Look out for signs such as bare patches on carpets or holes in other natural material around your home. You may also find shed skins from the larvae or gritty, sand-like droppings on affected areas.
While you’re usually more likely to notice adult beetles, it is at the larval stage that they are most destructive, as carpet beetle larvae feed almost constantly. That’s because the larvae, sometimes known as woolly bears, need a lot of protein to grow. At Pest Relief, we’re ready to remove carpet beetles at all life cycle stages.
If you think you have carpet beetles, you need to make sure that you hoover regularly and empty the vacuum cleaner after each use. Try to isolate affected items to stop the spread of the infestation and book professional carpet beetle control as soon as possible. If you contact us, a member of our team will arrive as soon as possible to carry out a treatment and get your property back to a pest-free state.
