Carpet Beetle Treatment Warrington
Small holes in carpets, or tiny hairy larvae along the skirting boards? TTOCS Pest Control provides carpet beetle treatment across Warrington to protect your carpets, clothing and fabrics.
Signs of Carpet Beetles
Early identification helps prevent larger problems. Common signs include:
Woolly Bears
Small hairy larvae along skirting and under furniture
Irregular Holes
Damage to carpets, rugs and clothing
Bald Patches
Thinning carpet along edges and under furniture
Shed Skins
Cast larval skins in dark corners
Adult Beetles
Small round beetles on windowsills
The damage is done by the larvae, often called woolly bears. They feed on natural fibres such as wool, silk, feathers and fur, usually in dark, undisturbed places.
Adult beetles are small, round and often patterned, and are commonly seen on windowsills in spring and early summer.
Our Carpet Beetle Treatment
Treatment targets the larvae where they feed and hide.
Treatment includes:
- Inspection to find the source
- Treatment of carpets, edges and voids
- Treatment of affected furniture
- Advice on clothing and stored items
- Follow-up visit if needed
Finding the source, such as an old bird’s nest in the loft, is often key.
Where Carpet Beetles Hide
Larvae prefer dark, undisturbed areas with natural fibres.
Common hiding places:
- Under beds and heavy furniture
- Carpet edges and skirting
- Wardrobes and drawers
- Lofts and old bird nests
We check all the likely areas during the inspection.
Preventing Damage
Good habits help protect fabrics in the long term.
Prevention tips:
- Vacuum carpet edges regularly
- Store wool and silk in sealed bags
- Clean items before storing them
- Remove old bird nests from lofts
Carpet beetles and clothes moths often need similar treatment.
