Beetle infestations affect homeowners in the UK. They often affect stored food, but can reside in several areas depending on the species of beetle. Food products may be contaminated with beetle eggs at any point through the life of the product, and if left undisturbed for a long time in your property the eggs can hatch ultimately causing a beetle infestation. There are several beetle kinds in the UK and these will target different areas of your property. Carpet beetles consume carpets and other soft furnishings, while stored product beetles affect dried food in your kitchen. Most beetles are not dangerous, but can distribute diseases or bacteria and so any home furniture or foodstuffs that are infested may need to be removed.
The most important element to controlling a beetle infestation is accurate identification of the species of beetle. Different beetles will require different treatment methods and you may need to target different regions of your home. Professional pest control companies can identify the beetle and will then agree with you an appropriate way of taking care of these pests. This will usually include spraying insecticide or applying dust insecticide to an area. If the infestation is in a kitchen area then you should make certain to work with an insecticide that is safe for food preparation areas. Many pest control firms also provide an education service where they’ll advise you of the likely causes of the beetle infestation and how best to stop the issue from reoccurring.
