Characteristics of Beetles
Beetles come in many shapes, sizes, and colors. Some are long and slender while others are oval and round. On average, beetles are under an 1′ in length.
Understanding Beetles

How to Get Rid of Beetles the Pest PRO Way
Because beetles can become a problem, it becomes extremely important to contact your Pest PRO. Our protection process starts with an assessment of your situation. We then identify the best solution to move forward with. We use the latest technology and training so we can provide you with the BEST solution available. Lastly, we monitor the situation to ensure the bed bugs do not return.
How to Deal with Beetles
Beetles develop in a four-stage life cycle. These stages include egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The length of these life cycles all depends on the type of beetle. Some develop very quickly and they can produce more than one generation each year. Others on the other-hand can take several years to decades to develop from egg to adult.
Chemical Free Control Practices
- Clean: some beetles can simply be removed by using a vacuum.
- Sanitation: good sanitation practices and removing scrap foods.
- Inspect: inspect foods, fabrics, and wooden items prior to bringing them into the home.
