How do pest control professionals deal with carpet beetles

Survey

A carpet beetle control technician will first inspect your home thoroughly to determine the extent of the infestation. The exterminator will identify areas where carpet beetles are active.

Treatment

An insecticide will be applied by the pest control technician. Carpet beetle treatments may include sprays or dust targeting the different stages of carpet beetles' life cycle.

Observation

The severity of the carpet beetles infestation might require multiple treatment visits. To ensure the treatment is effective, it is best to schedule follow-up visits.

Prevention

When the carpet beetle treatment is complete, you will be given instructions and tips on how to prevent carpet beetle infestations in the future.

Pest technician preparing the necessary equipment for treatment of carpet beetles
An infestation of carpet beetles may require the help of a pest control service. When carpet beetles infest your home, they can cause considerable damage in a short time. The larvae of the insect feed exclusively on animal-based and organic products, so your natural-fiber soft furnishings and textiles are immediately at risk. Carpet beetle larvae feed on:

  • Silk, leather, fur, cotton
  • Book bindings, canvas paintings
  • Upholstered items, natural carpeting, bedding, clothing
  • Synthetic rugs that have been affected by food/liquid spillages or grease stains

Carpet beetles control FAQ

Q: What kills carpet beetles instantly?

A: Use Boric acid powder to eliminate carpet beetles. Boric acid can kill beetles, larvae, and eggs; sprinkle generously on carpet and vacuum after two to three hours.

Q: Do carpet beetles live in beds?

A: It is rare for carpet beetles to infest beds or people the same way bed bugs do. Instead, they prefer to feed on fabrics like carpet, wool and other natural materials.

Q: Can you see a carpet beetle egg?

A: It is easy to distinguish carpet beetles' eggs from others because they have ledges that look like backbones. They are white and can reach up to 0.5mm long with an oval shape.

Q: How much is it to get rid of carpet beetles?

A: A carpet beetle exterminator typically charges between £180 to £260, including materials and tools. Most infestations require one treatment, but severe cases of persistent pests may require multiple visits.

Q: What time of the year do you see carpet beetles?

A: Carpet Beetles eat only pollen and nectar from garden flowers and lay their eggs in bird's nests, felt, fabric, or fluff accumulated in buildings. A carpet beetle pupa usually emerges during the spring and summer. Adult carpet beetles search for egg-laying sites in April, May and June, while the grubs are active in October before hibernating.

Q: How does pest control get rid of carpet beetles?

A: Carpet beetles are controlled using residual pesticides sprayed on the floors and walls. Pesticides like these will kill adults and larvae immediately and have enhanced residual properties. A professional fogging machine reaches every corner of a room where carpet beetles hide.
