Carpet Beetle Larva (Hairs/Skin)

Indoor environments, specifically in floor cracks, under carpets, and in areas where dust and hair accumulate.

Feeds on animal-based materials such as wool, silk, fur, feathers, and lint, as well as dead skin and hair.

The larvae are active crawlers that avoid light. They shed their skins multiple times as they grow, leaving behind thin, brownish, hair-like casings.

Can cause damage to clothing and household fabrics. The hairs of the larvae can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
