Carpet Beetle Treatment in Wandsworth: what we see locally
Carpet beetle larvae feed on wool, fur, feathers and silk. The adults lay eggs in birds' nests and dusty corners.
Wandsworth's Victorian houses, with old floorboards and pigeon nests in eaves and chimneys, are often affected.
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, or in the gaps between old floorboards.
