Frequently Asked Questions
How do pantry beetles get into sealed food?
Pantry beetle infestations often begin at food processing facilities or stores. Tiny larvae can penetrate surprisingly small gaps in packaging. Always inspect groceries and transfer dry goods to airtight containers immediately after purchase.
Are carpet beetles eating my clothes?
Carpet beetle larvae feed on natural fibers including wool, silk, leather, and feathers. They also consume pet hair, dead insects, and lint. Adults feed on pollen and don't damage fabrics. Regular cleaning and proper storage prevents damage.
Are your pantry/carpet beetles treatments safe for Brownington farms?
Yes. We use botanical and natural methods that are safe around livestock, crops, and stored feed. Our IPM approach protects Brownington's agricultural operations while eliminating pest problems.
