Beetle infestations affect homeowners in the United Kingdom. They typically affect stored foodstuffs, but can live in a number of areas depending on the kinds of beetle. Foodstuffs may be contaminated with beetle eggs at any stage during the life of the product, and if left undisturbed for extended periods of time in your kitchen the eggs can hatch producing a beetle infestation. There are a variety of beetle species in the United Kingdom and these will target different areas of your home. Carpet beetles devour carpets and other soft furnishings, while stored product beetles contaminate dried food in your kitchen. Most beetles are not dangerous, but can pass on diseases or bacteria and so any furnishings or food products that are contaminated might need to be removed.
The most important element to controlling a beetle infestation is accurate identification of the species of beetle. Different beetles will need different treatment methods and you’ll need to focus on different areas of your house. Expert pest control businesses can identify the beetle and will then agree with you on the ideal way of taking care of these pests. This will commonly consist of spraying insecticide or applying powder insecticide to an area. If the infestation is in a kitchen area then you should make sure to utilise an insecticide that is safe for food preparation areas. Many pest control companies also provide an education service where they will give you advice on the probable reasons for the beetle infestation and how best to stop the problem from reoccurring.
