    Carpet Beetle Control

    Stop the larvae chewing through wool, rugs, and stored fabrics.

    Carpet beetles are tiny, but their larvae quietly chew through wool, silk, rugs, taxidermy, and stored clothing for months before you notice. Our program finds the source, usually something dead in a void or a bird nest, and treats it.

    Signs you have a problem

    • Small fuzzy 'wooly bear' larvae in closets or drawers
    • Tiny round beetles on windowsills
    • Bald patches on wool rugs or holes in stored sweaters
    • Shed larval skins along baseboards

    How Hydra treats it

    We track down the harborage, closets, attics, vents, dead insects in voids, or old bird/rodent nests.

    Treatment includes targeted residual application to harborage and a perimeter treatment to interrupt the cycle.

    We recommend laundering or freezing infested items as part of the plan.

    How it works

    • Source-finding inspection
    • Targeted, low-impact interior treatment
    • Storage and laundering guidance
    • Follow-up if needed

    Are these bites?

    Carpet beetle larvae do not bite, but their bristles can cause an itchy rash that's often misidentified as bed bug bites. If the welts are random and you can't find bed bugs, carpet beetles are a strong suspect.
