black carpet beetle larvae::Like other carpet beetle species, they feed on leather, silk, wool, feathers and hair.
Black carpet beetles may also consume dried meat, plants and dead insects.
This carpet beetle species tends to infest kitchen cabinets and clothing storage areas.
Their pronota and heads are black and the head is partially concealed from above.
Their wings, known as elytra, are reddishbrown.
Female black carpet beetles fly indoors to lay their eggs.
In warm environments, these eggs hatch into larvae within six to 12 days; colder environments delay hatching times to between 15 and 20 days.
A clump of golden hairs is located at the end of their bodies.
Black carpet beetle larvae can survive up to 640 days and adults can live for several months.
Adults do not cause damage indoors, although they are considered pests in horticultural settings.
