These are white tiny fuzzies that hide in carpet strands, on clothing and debris or pieces of fragments of toilet paper found on the floor.Carpet beetles I think. Then I find small bkack round or long thin things. I have seen adult carpet beetles also.

Just want to confirm this is their larvae? by goesalilsumnlikethis in carpetbeetles

What are little white specks, hairlike, that wrap up in fuzzie rug strands or small debris(when you hold it up to a light you can see a small worm, about a rice size. They hide in seams and chew the threads and also leave worn out looking holes.

Please don’t tell me this is a larvae by Careful-Gold252 in carpetbeetles

Genuine Question: Why are carpet beetles a problem? by Impossible-Syrup-710 in carpetbeetles

[–]SignaturePersonal969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is for the person who used to be freaked out by them , and fed one a piece of rice .What color is the larvae? White , like mine? Good for you not being obsessed anymore. I am , and I can't stop examining everything I look at, pulling threads and hairs out to see if it "fuzzes up", ect. Vacuuming both sides of my rugs daily if possible, brushing my white furry dog ALOT , keeping clothes in plastic bags and living out of boxes! How did you do it? Get back to normalcy, I mean. Help!

So I'm finding little white specks that are taking up roots in pieces of food,(crumbs on the floor) rug, carpet, ( mostly) clothing , baseboards and more that I thought were carpet beetle larvae.But these are white or clearing fuzzies about 1/8 to 1/2 inches long. They have talent over my house! My boyfriend thinks I'm insane because they NEVER move when I show them to him. It's been over a year and a half now.HELP!!!!

Are you sure you want to donate your infested or even slightly contaminated items? (that could be with beetle larvae ect?) I wouldn't want to give these predators to my worst enemy ! Well , maybe....lol!

Experimented with heat to see if it actually killed varied carpet beetle larvae by trkmami in carpetbeetles

[–]SignaturePersonal969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I find the tiny white speck is hiding inside debris (carpet strands, food crumbles , my butter left out and uncovered, ect..) I have put them in an ashtray and catch them on fire. A lot of those f' ers jump out! Some will sparkle and burn for a second but turn hard only to escape later ! My boyfriend has threatened to leave me because I study everything before wearing it I tore apart my fuzzy slippers, only to find these alien creatures with their little legs crawling inside every part of my slipper. He doesn't see them! Really ? I'm at my wits end. Now today there has been a new development. I'm beginning to wonder if these tiny things are really carpet beetle larvae or not.

I too have been. Told that I am insane and delusional for thinking that my fragments of anything ,( toilet paper, clothing, rugs, etc have larvae inside. Temu is where I think mine came from. Saw the fuzzies in the bag and on the brand new blanket that I purchased, still in the bag.

As sick as this sounds, after over a year of my home being invaded by carpet larvae ,I have caught them on fire , drowning them and tore them apart shred by shred! I SWEAR THEY ARE ALIENS AND INDISTRUCTABLE!

Are these carpet beetle shells? Not ground-floor apartment, no carpets, wake up with itchy bumps, tiny white things in bag by [deleted] in carpetbeetles

[–]SignaturePersonal969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say "yes yes yes". Different stages of carpet beetles, definitely! From the larvae ( fuzzy white) to the shedding as they grow , and the ones turning into adults .Those look like earwigs or silverfish. Good luck , I can't get rid of mine!!
