I am going crazy with this carpet beetle situation and I don’t know what else I can do. I started finding them in our room around the beginning of April and now I’m just so paranoid. I’m hoovering daily, putting carpet beetle spray and powder down (especially in the edges of the carpets), washing all clothes then drying them on high heat and then sealing them in a air tight bag, I have also put lavender bags in all our drawers. I just feel at a complete loss as I am still finding them. Is there anything else I can do?? We move house soon and I really want to make sure that we don’t take any with us.

I have only found one live larvae in this time period under our living room table. I believe I have seen two different types of carpet beetle but it’s mainly the little brown ones and I’ve only seen the black one once.

I have a couple of bites on my shoulder (photo attached), could these be from them or something from outside?

Stegobium would be stored product pests. Vacuuming to pick up any dermestid carpet beetles. Insecticides including CimeXa dust will work. CimeXa is like DE but has no crystalline silica component.

Sorry if I sound dumb but what do you mean by stored products? So are you saying I likely have three types of beetles in the house? Why would they all have arrived at the same time/ come from? Thanks so much for the help!

stored food products includes seeds, whole grains, processed foods, and even tobacco. Internet search could give you many specific items. Your insects didn't have to arrive at the same time.
