Carpet Beetle Treatment in Haringey: what we see locally
Carpet beetle larvae feed on wool, fur, feathers and silk. The adults lay eggs in birds' nests and dusty corners, and larvae move into carpets and wardrobes.
Haringey's period houses, with old floorboards, wool rugs and pigeon nests on roofs and chimneys, are often affected. Our treatment targets carpet edges, floorboard gaps and wardrobes.
We see carpet beetles most in the large Edwardian homes of Muswell Hill and Crouch End.
