Carpet Beetle Pest Control Specialists
Biology
In adult Carpet Beetles mating occurs immediately after emergence and female Carpet Beetles then produces up to 100 eggs over a period of two weeks. Carpet Beetle larvae (known as the “woolly bear”) development lasts for 10-30 days with larvae reaching up to 4-5mm in size before pupation. During the larvae development considerable damage is caused to products such as wool, fur, leather, silk, animal skins and occasionally cereal based food products. Adult Carpet Beetles usually live outdoors on pollen and nectar. Carpet Beetles thrive in situations where they remain undisturbed, such as under carpets, in bird and rodent nests and under or in animal remains.
