There are very small beetles in my kitchen. At first I thought it was dirt, but I think it's moving. what can I do about it
What is that tiny creature on my wallpaper? A mite, a dust mite, or something else?
When I removed my baseboard, this little creature popped out. Does anyone know what it is? I just moved into this apartment 🙂
Are these the same moths or are they different?
Hello, I've had three baby walking leaves since yesterday, and I'm still a beginner. Just before I went to bed, I looked into the terrarium and was startled: I suddenly saw two maggot-like worms scurrying around the branches. I'm attached to a picture.

This is one of the bacon beetle family, probably the Woven beetle:

But whether this or another (as well as the rug beetle, fur beetle, Berlin beetle…) from the family of bacon beetles remains quite the same, because all are among the material pests in the household.
Their larvae feed on textiles, wool fabrics, mattresses, upholstery, feathers, carpets and some more – making them unusable for us.
A beetle lady who came into the house (last year, they just fly in), put off her eggs, from which then larvae were puffed – and now the beetles are slipped.
It is also possible to bring them into the house as larvae in a food or textile piece.
When several show up one should look for where more beetles and especially larvae can be found:

Wash infested textiles at least 60° or freeze for a few days, dispose of infested food outside the house.
Soils suck very well, here also the edges and strips do not forget, because these larvae are masters in hiding.
