Carpet Beetles and their Larvae
The carpet beetle has the unique ability to break down keratin protein, so they can feed on upholstery, furniture, clothing, and of course carpets. The presence of carpet beetles in our homes can lead to allergic reactions like asthma because of the molted skin that larvae shed. If you have seen a few small ladybug looking insects in your home, they are most likely carpet beetles. They leave holes in your clothes, upholstery and carpets. The bulk of the damage is caused by the larvae which are nesting in the relative safety offered by the dark spaces behind closed doors, upholstered furniture, beneath carpeting and at the edges of walls and floorings. Regular vacuuming of the rugs, carpets, and upholstery is all that it takes to keep carpet beetles in check.
