Carpet beetles have many variations, but they typically range from 1.7 to 3.5mm, which is about 0.07 to 0.14”. Before we learn how to get rid of carpet beetles, let’s look at what one is. Carpet beetles are oval-shaped and difficult to spot as they are only 2 to 4mm long. As is so often the case, it is the larva that does all the damage. These are mostly brown, with white or yellow markings and are covered in short, bristly hairs, hence their well-known ‘woolly bear’ moniker. What causes carpet beetles? I found that if I used epsom salt to scrub my scalp and rub through my hair prior to shampooing and as a body scrub along with essential oil infused products it helped immensely & immediately. I would put my hair in a bun and leave it that way most of the time. I eventually did a lice treatment in the end to make absolutely sure they were eliminated. Honestly it was probably overkill, but is there really any such thing with these monsters?
