IDENTIFICATION

Adult Carpet beetles are small with compact, oval rounded bodies. Legs and head are not obvious, often being hidden under the body.

Larvae are short (4-7mm long, depending on species), brown and covered in bristles; they move slowly. As they grow they moult, leaving cast brown skins.

Larvae of Carpet beetles feed on dry materials of animal origin such as wool, fur, silk, felt, dried meat and carcasses. Carpets, rugs, under felt, wall hangings, clothing, wool insulation and insect collections are frequently damaged. Variegated and Black carpet beetles are the most widespread and damaging species.

TREATMENT

If an infested article is transportable, remove it from your home for disposal or treatment by DCPC, there is a DIY method of treatment, wrapped in plastic and deep-freeze it for 2 weeks.
Chemical treatments are recommended if the carpet beetles are found eating your carpets, skin mats or clothes.
This service involves a light treatment to all natural fibre carpets, with a Pyrethrum product. We will service around and under all furniture. We recommend treatment to the interior of all linen cupboards and wardrobes.
We will thoroughly explain the process and ways you can help to keep on top of infestation.
An inspection may be required to the roof void or subfloor, if storage is present, to determine if affected by the carpet beetles. If activity is found, treatment to these areas is included.

I wish all the trades we use were as good as Dylan. Have used his services a few times and couldn’t be happier. Definitely give him a crack to look after all your pest control needs.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dylan was originally recommended to us from a work colleague (after a home we were buying was flagged with previous termite workings). She spoke so highly of him that we had a chat and booked in for an inspection and general pest spray immediately post purchase. He attended today and has definitely lived up to her review. It is very clear to us from our interactions that Dylan is honest/trustworthy, has great knowledge and is extremely thorough in all he does. On top of all that he is also just generally a legend!  Without a doubt we will be a repeat customer each year. We really appreciate your help mate!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really professional easy to deal with and great communication. We had a week old bay so i was a bit nervous but Dylan took us through the whole process to ensure safety and full care. He was very diligent and careful with the service. I have seen good results in the days following. Highly recommend Copes Pest Solutions
