To get rid of carpet beetles, you can follow these steps:
-
Thoroughly vacuum the affected areas, including carpets, rugs, upholstery, and curtains, to remove any larvae, eggs, and adult beetles.
-
Wash all affected clothing, bedding, and fabrics in hot water to kill any remaining beetles and their eggs.
-
Use a steam cleaner on carpets and furniture to kill carpet beetle larvae and eggs.
-
Seal any cracks or openings in walls, floors, and windows to prevent carpet beetles from entering your home.
-
Use insecticide sprays or dusts labeled for carpet beetles on infested areas as a last resort, following the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Consistent cleaning and maintenance can help prevent future carpet beetle infestations.
