Carpet beetle (likely varied carpet beetle)

Homes, especially carpets, upholstery, closets, and stored textiles; adults often occur near windows and flowers.

Adults feed mainly on pollen and nectar. Larvae consume keratin-rich materials such as wool, fur, feathers, hair, and shed skin.

Adults are active in spring and summer and lay eggs in protected textile areas. Larvae are hairy, avoid light, and may remain hidden for months or years while molting.

Larvae can damage woolens, furs, carpets, and natural-fiber clothing; their shed hairs may irritate skin or airways. Adults are harmless and may contribute to pollination.
