What do beetles look like and why are they concerning?

Beetles are frequently confused with cockroaches due to their similar size and color. Adult Beetles can be identified by the look and feel of their wings and wing covers. They have an outer set of wings which are hard and thick to protect their extremely fragile flying wings.

Where do beetles live?

Beetles remain close to their source of food, so the species of the beetle and what they feed on will dictate where they live in a home or business. For instance, beetles that feed on plants will live near potted plants or floral arrangements, while beetles that feed on fibrous materials will live in or near things like clothing or upholstered furniture.

Why do I have a beetle problem?

Beetles enter buildings seeking food and shelter. During the colder months, they need a place to live that will protect them from the weather, which most buildings provide. In terms of food, different types of beetles are attracted to different food sources.

When are beetles active?

Beetles may swarm and cluster outside of homes and businesses in warmer, dry weather. In colder, wet weather, they tend to invade buildings in search of food and shelter. Some beetle types will die out in cold weather, and some will enter diapause, which is similar to hibernation.

What’s the best way to prevent a beetle infestation?

An essential step in avoiding a beetle infestation is ensuring any gaps, cracks, or spaces that could lead inside are filled or fixed. This includes spaces surrounding doors and windows, cracks in the foundation and exterior walls, and gaps around utility lines and appliance vents.
