Carpet Beetle Control Canterbury
A shared student house's carpet edges, rarely lifted between tenancies, give carpet beetle larvae the same undisturbed conditions moths favour, just with a different insect underneath.
Carpet Beetle Control in Canterbury
Carpet edges under furniture in a shared student house often go unchecked for terms at a time, and it's worth confirming whether any damage found is carpet beetle rather than assuming moths, since the treatment differs.
The larvae feed on the underlay and skirting edges rather than the visible carpet, which is why a problem can be well established by the time it's noticed.
Local pattern
Undisturbed Edges, Correctly Identified
A survey checks underlay and skirting edges under furniture, confirming which insect is actually responsible for any damage found.
Treatment at changeover, before new tenants move in, catches this before it's mistaken for a fresh problem.
Landlords with several student properties benefit from a pre-term check given how easily this goes unnoticed and misidentified.
