Perhaps it's not a black carpet beetle. They are certainly NOT 1/2" long.

The tape measure in the picture indicates that the beetle in question is 1/2” long. Are black carpet beetles that big?

Rachael: Certainly, I will submit it to Pat today.

Thanks, Tom, for the ID. We have dealt mostly with Varied Carpet Beetles here in Williamsburg….this would be the first Black Carpet Beetle I have come across. The specimen is much larger than the Varied Carpet Beetle – almost twice the size of the adults I occasionally find on insect monitors. I will keep this in mind during future inspections.

Hey guys,

I was hoping to get an ID on these two insects. To me, the specimen with the black and white stripes resembles a Flea beetle, but I’m not sure if that’s a correct ID. The black specimen could be any number of ground beetles that wander in and expire on the floor. Just playing it safe and making sure I don’t have a collections problem on my hands.

Thanks in advance for your help.
