Finding tiny beetles or fuzzy larvae in your wardrobe can be unsettling. Carpet beetles quietly damage fabrics, rugs, and stored clothing across banora Point and the Northern Rivers. The good news? Professional treatment works. Here’s what you need to know about getting rid of them for good.
What Are Carpet Beetles?
Carpet beetles are small, oval insects that feed on natural fibres like wool, silk, leather, and fur. While adults live outdoors and feed on pollen, it’s the hairy larvae that cause the real damage indoors. You’ll often spot them near skirting boards, under rugs, or inside undisturbed wardrobes. Our humid tweed heads climate makes local homes especially welcoming to these pests, allowing infestations to grow quickly if left untreated.
Can Pest Control Get Rid of Them?
Yes. Professional residential pest control is the most reliable way to eliminate carpet beetles completely. DIY sprays may kill a few adults, but they rarely reach the hidden larvae doing the real damage. A qualified technician identifies the source, treats every life stage, and prevents the infestation from returning.

At TSD Pest Control, we start with a thorough pest inspection to locate hotspots, from subfloors and wardrobes to air vents and carpet edges. We then apply targeted, eco-friendly pest control treatments that are safe around children and pets. Because carpet beetles often breed in quiet corners, we also check for nearby triggers such as bird nests or rodent activity that may be feeding the infestation.

What the Treatment Involves
Effective carpet beetle removal isn’t a one-spray job. Our technicians combine surface sprays with crack-and-crevice application, targeting skirting boards, wardrobes, and under-carpet areas where larvae feed. We also recommend laundering affected textiles in hot water and vacuuming thoroughly before and after treatment for the best results.
