Will this work for carpet beetles?

This will work for ANY kind of insect! Any bug that crawls thru it will begin to die. It's not instant like a poison but boy does it work! I keep a little of it in the back of my closets all the time. i put it out months ago and I didnt use much. I still find dead spiders and crickets in my closet every now and then.

Yes it does work on carpeting, as long as it is not a deep pile. We have 2 of them and like them a lot.

This is for Japanese Beetles, and unless you are overrun with them inside, I'm not sure you would need this product. I have never used this product inside.

It doesn't say on the label but I can honestly say I that Bengal will work. Bengal works because it affects the bugs hard exoskeleton. I use it for spiders, roaches, ants, silverfish and ants. Give it a try.

Depends how heavy the carpet is per unit area. It works initially but loses the grip after a while. For heavy carpets that happens fast. I hope I can find better option.

Unfortunately, it does not appear that Nuvan strips will be a good solution for carpet beetles. I did a quick search and there is quite a bit of information on-line regarding how to control them. I'd start with that. The first step always is to accurately identify the pest. Some universities have extension services which will help with that, if you need it. Good luck!

It probably would if the carpet isn't too long. I expect it would be slower and may have issues turning though

I honestly do not know. I bought the pest repeller for my spider problems and it worked for that.

The container states: ants, roaches, palmettos, fleas, silverfish and other insect pests. I would suggest trying it with carpenter bees to see if it works. You'll probably need it for the other pests anyway so it won't go to waste!

Sorry I ordered this for my son-in-law to use for ants. It works on termites and ants. Wish I could help more.

Should work as well as any other carpet.... But as stated by others, it does not keep the from getting dirty, it just makes getting them clean alot easier.

Hi Dave, I'm almost sure it would work for carpenter bee holes (should try it myself since I have them as well!). The duster is a flexible rubber "bulb" that you squeeze to get the powder out of the small opening that's about 1/8" in diameter (I'm guessing here). The only catch would be that you'd have to fill the bulb to almost full capacity in order to squeeze out the powder in a near upright position into the holes. Hope that helps you! I'd like to find out if it works for your carpenter bee situation if possible.

Sorry it took so long to answer back. I've used only on carpenter ant and wasps!! It works great on those two.

Yes it will. It works great on most surfaces. If you only use it on the carpet, be sure to keep the treads clean, and not bound up with fibers from the carpet (which may not even be an issue if your carpets aren't shag.

I have removed many spiders with past Dust Busters. Above model seems to have even more suction power. Believe it should work on any kind of spiders.

I don't think it will. As I understand it , the spores go into the ground and will kill the larve of Japanese Beetles, some grub worms and other insects that live in the ground. The spores do multiply year after year but will not affect the beetles that fly in from neighbors until they go into the ground I am hoping it will kill enough grubs to starve the moles/voles out

I don't know but I would not recommend it as it has a very strong odor outdoors. That is what attracts the beetles.
