Older terraces and later housing sit side by side in Netherfield. Each has its own favourite hiding places for carpet beetle larvae, and we know where to look.
Netherfield grew with the railway, and its older terraces stand alongside later housing close to Colwick. In the older homes, floorboard gaps, lofts and unheated back rooms are typical hiding places. Later houses are more likely to have the problem along fitted carpet edges and inside bedroom furniture.
We tailor our search to the house. In a terrace we check under boards and rugs and into any reachable loft space. In a newer home we examine the edges, wardrobes and soft furnishings. Larvae and shed skins are what we confirm, then treat accordingly. If you tell us when you first noticed the damage, it helps us gauge how long they have been active.
Rooms that are cool, quiet and rarely entered let larvae feed undisturbed, and fibres or dust gather there. Regular airing and vacuuming reduce the risk.
Yes, it helps. Larvae can feed for many months, so knowing when damage began tells us whether to look for older infestations in stored items or more recent ones near windows.
Both damage natural fibres, but they are different insects with different larvae, so correct identification matters for treatment.

Where a building has ledges, gaps and a nearby food source, pigeons will return. Proofing removes the place to perch, which is why it outlasts scaring.
