Product of the Month - All Beetle AA Carpet Beetle Kit (IL-2110)
Last week we shared our insect of the month, the black carpet beetles.
This week, we are sharing a product we offer to help solve your carpet beetle problems.
How to Take Care of Carpet Beetle Problems
Working closely with the pest control industry, Insects Limited recognized pest control operators and residential customers alike needed a device that could fit in areas suspected of insect infestation without taking any space.
This All Beetle AA Carpet Beetle Kit includes 10 or 100 (select your quantity) complete All Beetle traps, 10 or 100 dermestid attractant lures, 10 pheromone Bullet Lures™ for Varied Carpet Beetles (Anthrenus verbasci), and Black Carpet Beetle, (Attagenus unicolor), as well as a glue board specifically designed to fit the All Beetle trap removable tray.
The dermestid attractant is a custom attractant lure for all types of dermestid beetle (Carpet Beetle, Warehouse Beetle, Odd Beetle, Hide Beetle, and Larder Beetle) larvae and adults. These lures are made up of a combination of multiple food attractants that have been tested both in the laboratory and in the field on dermestid beetle larvae and adults.
These lures that will attract a multitude of species will remain attractive for 1 year. The larval stages as well as an adult male and female carpet beetles are attracted to the lure and are readily stuck in the glue for monitoring purposes when paired with an appropriate trapping system.
All these features come together to create an effective monitor for the presents of dermestid insects. The All Beetle trap has a clear view lid for easy inspection, a sturdy polypropylene base, and a replaceable tray that snaps in from below. This low-profile trap slides easily beneath equipment or fits nicely into corners or along walls.
Features and Benefits of the All Beetle AA Carpet Beetle Kit
The All Beetle AA Carpet Beetle Kit will allow you to monitor to help determine:
If there is a presence of fabric-infesting insects in the suspected area? If yes, then this device can help pinpoint the infestation.
If the numbers of insects present is increasing or decreasing? If continuing to increase, further investigation or professional measures need to be taken.
If the control measures (E.g. removal of infested product, increased sanitation, freezing of infested products, etc), that you have taken are working to reduce pest numbers or not.
The All Beetle AA Carpet Beetle Kit has been tested by professionals in both the lab and the field and has proven to be the most effective device on the market, specifically for beetles that infest items made from animal hair. Because of its clear top, the All Beetle trap is the easiest on the market to inspect. Competing traps take too much time and effort during inspections.
For a professional, too much time is spent walking to each device, kneeling, taking off the top, and counting the insects of an already, too small, adhesive area. The clear top allows professionals to simply glance down at the device to find out if there is a presence of insects.
If not, they simply keep moving, allowing more time for inspection. The loop on the top allows the device to be tethered to a permanent object therefore reducing the possibility of a lost device as well as lost insect data. To ensure the lid will not pull off with the tether, Insects limited has created deeper hooks as well as securing joints between the clear top and the blue base. The top is vented in 3 places to allow for the disbursement of pheromone and food attractant.
