Signs of Carpet Beetle Infestation

One of the first signs of there being a problem with carpet beetles is finding the beetles congregating around your windows since they are attracted to sunlight. Another key indicator there may be carpet beetles is finding the hairy, slow-moving larvae on the walls. If you find these beetles or larvae in your home or office building, then immediately check these areas:

  • all of the furniture
  • under the rugs
  • closets
  • any boxes with stored clothes

These are all areas where these pests may leave holes and damage in the various natural fibers.

Once you have identified these beetles, then you can take some proactive steps to stop the spread of the pests. Sanitization and clean up are very important in helping to eradicate a carpet beetle problem. Of course, that could simply be papering over a problem and the beetles may be existing elsewhere unseen. However, taking some precautions can minimize any future infestations, including:

  • Immediately clean up dust, lint and any other debris around the home that can serve as a food source for carpet beetles.
  • Inspect all garments, clothing, and textiles for carpet beetles.
  • All clean, pest-free clothing should be immediately stored in tight, insect-proof plastic containers.

How to Treat Infested Furniture & Clothing

Infested furniture and clothing can be treated by doing the following:

  • Storing small garments or textile items in your freezer for at least two days.
  • Dry cleaning all infected items or heat treating them for several hours.
  • Physically removing the carpet beetles and larvae by hand with a vacuum if the infestation is minimal.

Missing just one or two mature adults can mean an immediate reoccurrence of the problem in just a few weeks when the pests have already laid eggs and the eggs later hatch.
