Carpet beetles are dark grey and round in shape. They are about three millimetres in length, have three transverse white lines and red irregular lines in the center of the back. It is the larvae that create the damage by attacking natural and animal fibres such as wool, fur, leather, silk, carpets and stuffed animals.

Their life cycle is approximately 95 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
