My apartment had a severe case of carpet moths and Tom’s Pest Control got rid of them in just one visit. I am so satisfied with their service and it is also very cost effective! They will be visiting again in 2 weeks to make sure all the moths and their eggs are gone, which is amazing! We were advised on how to ensure the pests don’t return. Will definitely be coming here to get my end of lease pest management done!

How We Carry Out Beetle Control in Your House

When you think about the beetles in your house, it’s easy to feel a bit overwhelmed. But all we can say is don’t worry and leave this pest problem to us.

Ant extermination Procedure
Inspection

The first step in tackling a beetle problem is a thorough inspection. Our experts will visit your property to carefully examine the areas where beetles are causing trouble. We look for signs like damage to carpets, wood, or stored goods and check out any hidden spots where beetles might be nesting or laying eggs.

Once we know what we’re dealing with, we’ll craft a treatment plan for your specific situation. During the planning stage, we take everything, including infestation level, beetle species, damage done, and more, into consideration so we can create a plan that works on the first attempt.

Once you give us a green signal, we share the details of the plan with you and begin implementing it. In most cases, we apply industry-approved pesticides that target adult beetles, their eggs, and larvae. When the treatment is underway, particularly in indoor areas, we suggest you and your family members stay out of the space to avoid exposure.

Once the beetles are gone, we don’t just stop there. We provide advice and strategies to help you keep them from coming back. This might include tips on how to store food properly, how to maintain your home to avoid attracting beetles, and ways to inspect for signs of infestation early.

Common Beetle Species

Elm Leaf Beetles

Elm Leaf Beetles

Elm leaf beetles are notorious for causing trouble with elm trees. These beetles and their larvae munch on the leaves, leading to defoliation, which can weaken the tree and make it more vulnerable to other stresses.

Hibiscus Beetles

Hibiscus Beetles

Hibiscus beetles love to target hibiscus flowers. They chew into the buds to get at the pollen and nectar or lay their eggs. This can cause unsightly damage and affect the health of your plants.

African Black Beetles

African Black Beetles

African black beetles are a nuisance in gardens. They chew on plants at or just below ground level, sometimes causing severe damage like ring barking, which can kill larger plants.

Carpet Beetles

Carpet Beetles

Carpet beetles are a major problem indoors. Their larvae hide in dark places and feast on natural fibres found in carpets, rugs, furniture, bedding, and clothing. They can be hard to spot but can cause noteworthy damage to fabrics. Hence, carpet beetle control should be taken when you first see the signs of these pests.

Rhinoceros Beetles

Rhinoceros Beetles

Rhinoceros beetles can be problematic for gardens. They often cause leaf loss and can even lead to early nut fall, reducing plant yield.

Cigarette Beetles

Cigarette Beetles

Cigarette beetles are often found in pantry items, attacking stored products like cereals, dog biscuits, and spices. They can also be a problem for any other stored food item in your kitchen or pantry.

Common Furniture Beetles

Common Furniture Beetles

Common furniture beetles are particularly damaging to wooden furniture and structures. They weaken wood by feeding on it and can lead to serious structural damage over time.

Drugstore Beetles

Drugstore Beetles

Drugstore beetles invade a range of dried plant and animal products, including grains, spices, and flour. They can also cause damage to furniture and books by chewing through materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

Carpet beetles are small, about 2 to 3 millimetres long, and usually have a rounded shape. They can be yellow, black or white and are likely to be spotted on carpets, rugs, or furniture. Their larvae, which are the real troublemakers, look like small, hairy worms.

Carpet beetles can damage your property more than you can imagine. Their larvae feed on natural fibres like wool, silk, and cotton, which means they can ruin your luxurious carpets, clothes, and upholstery. If left unchecked, they can be the reason for you to undertake pricey repairs.

Vacuum carpets, rugs, and upholstery to remove beetle eggs or larvae. Make sure to clean any pet hair or lint, as these can attract beetles. When you bring home any parcel, ensure it is pest-free. Give mint oil a go or use plants that have it in them as a natural way to prevent infestation.

Beetles are considered pests because they can damage your home and belongings. Some beetles, like carpet beetles, feed on fabrics and can ruin your clothes and furniture. Others might damage plants or stored food. They can also be a nuisance by being hard to control and needing ongoing attention to prevent further issues.

Signs of a beetle infestation depend on the beetle type. For carpet beetles, look out for small, round holes in carpets, rugs, and clothing, or see if you find the beetles themselves or their larvae. You might also see shed skins or small, fluffy balls of shed larvae. If you witness these signs, it’s best to take action right away to stop them from multiplying and damaging your property.
