Wilson® carpet beetle killers
Don’t let carpet beetles pull the wool over your eyes
Carpet beetles are a very common household pest, and one of the most destructive. As often happens, it’s not the adult form that does the damage (although they are unsightly), it's really their larvae that make them such a pest. The larvae eat a variety of organic materials, especially wool, felt, fur, silk, feathers and leather, because they contain keratin, an animal protein they take pleasure in digesting. So protect everything from sweaters and scarves to blankets and comforters – not to mention carpets and rugs, of course. Use Wilson products that come as sprays, some with wand applicators to get into cracks and crevices where carpet beetles love to hide.
