Carpet beetles can be an annoyance in your home. Only the larvae feed on fabric eating their way through rugs, clothes and furniture. They can also sometimes cause an allergic reaction. Their larvae, the young carpet beetles, are 1/8 to 1/4 inch long, and are a tan brownish. They’re covered with bristles and shed their skin as they grow. Some people can be allergic to larvae bristles or skin that’s been shed causing itchy skin, rashes, which looks like welts or bites that a bed bug or fleas can give you, and may cause a burning sensation and hives. The symptoms of an allergic reaction will go away once the carpet beetles and their shed skin are eliminated from your home.
