Beetle infestations affect property owners in the UK. They frequently affect stored food, but can live in various areas depending on the kinds of beetle. Foodstuffs may be infested with beetle eggs at any point through the life of the product, and if left undisturbed for a long time in your kitchen the eggs can hatch resulting in a beetle infestation. There are a variety of beetle species in the UK and these will target different areas of your house. Carpet beetles consume carpets and other soft furnishings, while stored product beetles affect dried food in the kitchen. Most beetles are not dangerous, but can distribute diseases or germs and so any furnishings or foodstuffs 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 options and you’ll need to target different areas of your property. Professional pest control firms can identify the beetle and will then agree with you an appropriate method of taking care of these pests. This will typically consist of spraying insecticide or applying powder insecticide to an area. If the infestation is in a cooking area then you should be sure to make use of an insecticide that is safe for food preparation areas. Many pest control firms also provide an education service where they will give you advice on the probable reasons for the beetle infestation and how best to prevent the problem from reoccurring.
