The users rate Ortho highly, and many of them managed to get rid of carpet beetles with it even when suffering from a real epidemic of them.Carpet beetles will wander into the mothball traps and get killed over time.

I am curious if u have been able to identify what this pest is that acts like a flea but is not. I am on the east coast & do not garden so I am unable to relate to any plant situations. We have shrubs etc outside near our front door & mulch from landscaping done over the summer. I’ve been told by an exterminator mulch often is the culprit for many home pests. The mulch becomes infested before it gets to the nursery. Ironically, my pest problem is also in my car & I park outside, in my driveway, facing our house, which is directly in front of our mulched front bed. But it’s winter. We now have snow & I’ve done enough cleaning, investigating etc to last 7 lifetimes & am not about to start examining my mulch. Thought I’d pass the mulch info on to you though. Maybe u r somewhere warmer. Conversely, I’ve been told most mulch is treated so any pests attracted to it will not be. Leaves one wondering who to believe.

Moreover, carpenter beetle larvae shed their bristled brown skin when molting and that helps to identify them. My home is on the brink of a super-multi-critter infestation.
