FAQs About Beetle Pest Control in Southlake, TX

How much damage can beetles do?

Depending on the species, some beetle larvae can eat their way through clothing. Some species will bore into wood, and others prefer stored foods like flour or grain.

What does beetle damage look like?

Wood-destroying beetles: The damage looks like small, shallow holes drilled by a power tool.

Fabric-destroying beetles: Generally speaking, they eat fabric when they are in the larval stage. The damage they cause looks like worms have chewed through the fabric.

Carpet-destroying beetles: These beetles create similar damage to carpet material.

Food-eating beetles: These munchers eat stored grain and other foods, either during the larval stage or during the adult stage. By sifting through flour or stored grains, evidence of these beetles is easy to find. You’ll either discover worm-like larvae or fully-grown adult beetles.

Do beetles bite?

Longhorned beetles and stag beetles are a couple of types that will bite, though bites are rare and don’t typically cause any damage.

What if I am bit by a beetle? 

If they happen to nip at you, most beetles do not cause any real harm.

However, blister beetles — true to their name — can cause painful blisters by secreting nasty chemicals from their abdomen.

What kinds of beetles cause problems for homeowners in Southlake, TX?

There are many kinds of beetles that are considered pests:

- Powder post beetles chew their way through wood. 
- Weevils eat grain and other stored foods. 
- Dermestid beetles are similar to carpet beetles, which cause damage to carpets. 
- As a nuisance pest, Asian Lady beetles congregate in huge numbers and invade homes.

How many kinds of beetles are there?   

Beetles are the most prolific species in the world. There are about 350,000 known and named species of beetles. There are more known species of beetles than mammal and plant species combined.

We have been using Fox for about 6 months now and I have to say every member of this team that I've personally dealt with has been amazing. They are super patient, knowledgeable, and even when I ask them to come back out for extra prevention it's no questions asked and guilt free.

First service call we've had with FOX. From Chase who got us to sign up and Paul who came out and performed the service, I have nothing bad to say. Both were highly professional, kind, courteous and never made us feel like we were a burden. Awesome customer service from start to finish. Glad to be part of the FOX family!
