Carpet beetles can damage your carpet, furniture, and clothes, so take action to get rid of these household pests.
Step 1: Find the source
Inspect your home for larvae or shed skin. Carpet beetles like to feed in dark, secluded areas. If the infestation is contained, remove infested material.
Step 2: Vacuum frequently
Vacuum your carpets, drapes, closets, and under furniture frequently. Eggs that are laid indoors occur in lint accumulations.
Tip
Vacuum along baseboards and edges of carpeting where carpet beetles like to feed.
Step 3: Prevent entry
Prevent entry by checking your windows and air ducts for openings.
Step 4: Apply pesticides
Apply pesticides as a last resort. Bedding and clothing should not be sprayed, and read all labels before applying.
Tip
Check with a pest control company to find out the risks of using pesticides in the home.
Step 5: Contact pest control
Call your local pest control if you want an experienced professional to remove the pests.
