Here at Abbey Pest Control we have had several calls over the passed few weeks about carpet beetles. Carpet beetles are similar to carpet moths in that their larvae will feed upon carpets, clothing and furniture and are a real nuisance around Reading and Berkshire. 

 

Carpet beetles are about 1.7mm – 3.5mm with a roundish body, they have a white, brown and yellow pattern over their body (see photo). 

We cover a number of pests at Abbey Pest Control, not just rats, mice and bedbugs! We’ve been working on a site over the past few weeks just outside of our catchment area in Reading, Berkshire to help customers stop pigeons from roosting at their property and making an unsightly and hazardous mess.
