Protecting Your Home or Business From Beetles With Pest Control Atlanta
Are fine dust piles appearing near your baseboards or furniture? This “frass” is the warning sign of Carpet Beetle and Lyctid Powderpost Beetle are biological recyclers that feed on keratin and cellulose, effectively digesting your home’s wood. A single female can lay up to 100 eggs, with larvae remaining hidden and destructive for over a year before emerging.
Instead of relying on surface-level sprays, trust the trained technicians at Pest Control Atlanta. We utilize science-based Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to deploy Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs) and pheromone-based detection. Our EPA-registered treatments, applied by label directions, penetrate cracks and crevices to neutralize the infestation at the larval stage, backed by our Satisfaction Guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can pest control get rid of beetles?
Yes. Professional pest control eliminates beetle infestations using EPA-registered insecticides, targeted treatments for larvae and adults, and preventive barriers.
What attracts beetles to my house?
Beetles are attracted to moisture, food sources (grains, fabrics, wood), warmth, and entry points. Carpet beetles seek natural fibers, while powderpost beetles target wood with high moisture content common in Atlanta’s humid climate.
How long does beetle extermination take?
It depends on the pest and the size of the infestation. Your technician will explain what to expect after the inspection.
What month are beetles most active in Georgia?
Beetles peak from May through September in Georgia when temperatures exceed 70°F and humidity is high. However, carpet beetles and pantry beetles remain active year-round indoors in climate-controlled Atlanta homes.
How do you protect pets and children during treatment?
We use EPA-registered products applied according to label directions, and we’ll tell you when it’s okay for kids and pets to return to treated areas.
How do I identify a beetle infestation?
Signs include shed larval skins, small holes in wood or fabric, fine sawdust (frass), live beetles near windows, damaged stored foods, and musty odors. Carpet beetle larvae appear fuzzy; powderpost beetles leave 1/16″ exit holes.
Can beetles cause structural damage?
Powderpost beetles, old house borers, and deathwatch beetles tunnel through structural wood, weakening floors, beams, and furniture. Untreated infestations cause thousands in repair costs and compromise home integrity over 2-5 years.
How do I prevent beetles after treatment?
Professional preventive treatments last 90 days.
Do beetles come back after extermination?
Beetles can return if conditions remain favorable or new adults enter.
Do beetles bite humans?
Most beetles don’t bite. Carpet beetles cause skin irritation from larval hairs, not bites. Ground beetles and some wood-borers may pinch if handled, but bites are rare and non-venomous.
Beetles are easy to confuse with other hard-shelled insects. Browse the Atlanta pest library to narrow it down.
