Carpet Beetle Treatment in Redbridge: what we see locally
Carpet beetle larvae feed on wool, fur, feathers and silk. The adults lay eggs in birds' nests and dusty corners.
In Redbridge, we often trace carpet beetles to old pigeon or sparrow nests under the tiles of 1930s semis and Edwardian terraces. Our treatment targets carpet edges, floorboards, skirting and wardrobes.
Adult carpet beetles are tiny, round and mottled and are often seen on windowsills in spring. Finding them indoors usually means larvae are feeding under a bed, sofa or rug.
