Older houses with deep lofts, and farmland close by, give carpet beetles a good start in Southwell. We inspect closely and treat the places they have settled.
Southwell is a small minster town in Newark and Sherwood district, with older property and farmland around it. Older houses typically have roof voids, thick walls and cupboards under stairs, all of which collect dust. Orchard and farmland nearby mean birds nest readily in eaves, and old nesting material is a recognised food source for larvae.
We check carpets, rugs and furnishings, and also look at any roof space we can reach. Treatment goes to the confirmed feeding sites. Where a nest is the underlying cause, we explain the options, bearing in mind that nesting birds are protected and cleaning out old material should be done at the right time of year.
Not while a nest is active, as wild birds are protected. Outside the breeding season, old material can be removed, but take advice if you are unsure. We would rather be straight about this than promise too much.
They do not change the pest, but they often have more hidden voids and storage spaces to check, so the inspection can take a little longer. It varies from case to case. We explain this on every visit.
Both damage natural fibres, but they are different insects with different larvae, so correct identification matters for treatment.

A cafe near the minster, a pub with a cellar or a farm shop on the edge of town: each needs a plan, and a visitor is likely to notice a pest before you do.
