How to identify carpet beetles
Adult carpet beetles are tiny, round and often mottled, and are usually seen near windows. The larvae do the damage: small, fuzzy and striped, hiding in closets, under furniture, along baseboards and in stored fabrics.
Signs you may have a problem
- Small irregular holes in wool clothing, rugs or blankets
- Bare patches in carpet along edges or under furniture
- Fuzzy larvae or their shed skins in closets and drawers
- Tiny round beetles on window sills
Why it matters
Carpet beetle damage often goes unnoticed until a favorite rug or sweater is ruined. Finding where larvae are feeding and treating those areas protects what's left.
Common in: Wichita, Derby, Andover, Newton, Haysville, El Dorado, Hutchinson, McPherson, Arkansas City, and across Central Kansas.
