From the large villas of Mapperley Park to the later semis, we find where carpet beetle larvae are feeding and explain clearly what treatment involves.
Mapperley Park's Victorian villas often have cellars, attics, panelled rooms and plenty of fabric furnishing. Inter-war and post-war housing elsewhere in Mapperley is more compact, but equally able to harbour larvae in carpets and wardrobes. Many villas have also been split into flats, which can complicate things, as a problem in one flat may link to a shared loft or stairwell.
We check the main living areas, bedrooms and storage, then roof spaces and shared areas where we can reach them. Treatment is applied where larvae are found. Please mention if the property has been converted, since access and responsibility for shared areas can then affect what we recommend.
We can treat your flat and explain what we find in shared areas. Treating communal spaces generally needs the agreement of the landlord or managing agent, so we will tell you who to approach.
Larvae can feed for many months, sometimes longer in cool, undisturbed conditions, which is why damage can build slowly. Timing depends on temperature and food, so it varies from home to home.
Both damage natural fibres, but they are different insects with different larvae, so correct identification matters for treatment.
