Roydon homeowners and businesses call us regularly about carpet beetles, and we treat them across a village on the Hertfordshire/Essex border by the River Stort.
Because larvae can hide beneath furniture and around the edges of rooms, a thorough inspection and treatment of affected areas is important.
Roydon covers a village on the Hertfordshire/Essex border by the River Stort, with a village green, older cottages near the church and newer housing towards the station, which affects how carpet beetles typically get in and where they tend to be found — something we take into account during inspection.
We inspect the whole property, not just the room damage was found in, since larvae travel and hide in overlooked areas.
Our carpet beetle treatment service in Roydon deals with:
No, though they cause similar fabric damage. Carpet beetle larvae are small and bristly rather than caterpillar-like, and the treatment approach differs slightly.
They're often brought in on cut flowers, second-hand furniture or through open windows, and are attracted to natural fibres and pet hair.
Regular vacuuming, especially along skirting boards and under furniture, alongside professional treatment of the current infestation, helps reduce the chances of it returning.
Tell us what you've seen and where, and we'll get back to you — usually the same day.
