Beetle Control in Fort Worth, TX

Around Fort Worth, a lot of properties have a barn, a feed room, or a tack room along with the house. Sacks of grain and feed, dry pet food, and wool saddle blankets all sit in one place. For beetles, that is about as good as it gets. Brooks Pest Solutions offers eco-friendly beetle pest control throughout Fort Worth, based on which beetle you have and how it got in.

We serve Fort Worth, TX and the surrounding communities with beetle treatment plans built around your home, barn, and feed and tack rooms.

Beetles We Treat in Fort Worth

These are the beetles we treat, with the ones most common here listed first. Click a name to see what it looks like.

• Weevils. Small beetles with a long snout. They live in rice, flour, beans, corn, and other grains.
• Ground beetles. Dark, shiny, and fast. They live outside under rocks and mulch and come in under doors, often drawn by lights at night.
• Cigarette beetles. Small, brown, and rounded, with the head tucked down. They get into spices, dried peppers, tobacco, pet food, and other dry goods.
• Carpet beetles. Tiny, round, and spotted. Their fuzzy young eat wool, rugs, and other natural fabrics.
• Ladybugs (lady beetles). Round and orange or red, often with black spots. They gather in big groups on sunny walls and around windows when the weather cools.

Why Beetles Are a Problem in Fort Worth

Weevils live in grain. Feed sacks that sit open or stay stored for a long time can fill with them, and they spread from the feed room to the house pantry.

Wool saddle blankets and pads draw carpet beetles, and ground beetles slip into barns and garages at night.

Beetle Facts Every Fort Worth Homeowner Should Know

• Feed rooms draw weevils. Open or old sacks of grain are the usual source.
• Wool tack draws carpet beetles. Saddle blankets and pads are at risk.
• Most beetles come in through small gaps. Cracks around doors and windowsills are the usual way in. They can also catch a ride on guests and pets.
• Weevils often come home from the store. They can already be inside the food package when you buy it.
• It is usually the young that do the damage. Fuzzy young carpet beetles do the feeding, often in dark closets and under rugs.

Why Getting Rid of Beetles Matters

Feed that goes bad costs money. Beetles in grain mean wasted feed.

Beetles can damage what you own. Left alone, beetles can ruin food, rugs, clothes, and other fabrics, depending on the kind.

Ladybugs can cause wiring trouble. They tend to huddle around electrical boxes, which can lead to damage and shorts in your wiring.

The problem keeps going. Without treatment, beetles keep breeding and the repairs cost more.

Signs You Have a Beetle Problem

• Weevils in feed sacks or grain bins
• Holes or bare spots in wool saddle blankets
• Small beetles on windowsills, walls, or near lights
• Bugs, webbing, or dust in flour, rice, spices, or pet food
• Small holes or bare patches in rugs, wool, or stored clothes
• Beetles crawling near doors or in the garage

If you notice any of these signs around your Fort Worth home, our team can take a look during a beetle inspection and treatment visit.

Our Eco-Friendly Beetle Control Process

Step 1: Detailed Inspection. We look over your Fort Worth property to find which beetles you have and where they are getting in, including the pantry, feed room, tack room, and door gaps.

Step 2: Eco-Friendly Treatment. We treat inside and outside with general pest sprays and granules to remove the beetles already in your home and help keep new ones away. We ask that the home be tidy before the visit, and that people and pets step outside for about an hour after we treat, or until the product is dry.

Step 3: Simple Tips for Your Home. We share easy steps that help the treatment work, like keeping dry food in sealed containers, throwing out food that has beetles in it, and vacuuming rugs and closets often.

Step 4: Ongoing Monthly or Bi-Monthly Service. Because beetles on Fort Worth properties are active for most of the year, most clients stay on a monthly or bi-monthly plan. This lets our team come back often and stop new beetles before they build up.
