Carpet Beetle Control Gillingham
An inter-war semi's skirting-board edges give carpet beetle larvae a route entirely separate from the cavity wall that matters for mice in the same house.
Carpet Beetle Control in Gillingham
The cavity wall gap that matters for mice in this housing stock is unrelated to carpet beetle, which feeds along skirting-board edges and in underlay, damage that's easily mistaken for moths without a proper check.
Adult beetles drawn to a windowsill are often the first sign noticed, some distance from where the larvae are actually feeding.
Local pattern
Skirting Edges, Not The Cavity Wall
A survey focuses on skirting-board edges and underlay, a different target entirely to the cavity-wall checks relevant for mice.
Correct identification distinguishes carpet beetle from moth damage before treatment.
Treatment doesn't overlap with any mouse-proofing work, since the two pests are entirely unrelated.
