In your home, adult carpet beetles will feed on cereals, rice, and flour. This makes them a pantry pest.
Adult carpet beetles are more of a warning sign than a danger. While they can feed on your pantry products, they aren't good at getting in the packages that protect them.
Carpet beetle larvae are the real danger. They eat natural fibers in clothing, carpets, drapes, bedspreads, and sheets. They are even known to eat non-natural fibers. Carpet beetle larvae are drawn to the essential oils we leave behind. This will have them chewing on anything that comes in contact with our bodies and hair. So if you would rather not find holes in important pieces of clothing, it is a good idea to have these pests eradicated.
Is it possible to get carpet beetle bites? No. But your skin can become sensitive to carpet beetle saliva and you may develop an irritating rash.
Carpet beetles are hard to get rid of without professional help.
