Hi everyone… really hope you can help. We moved into an old house in the Summer last year and since then have repeatedly seen lots of these kinds of beetles. Like 5+ a day sometimes which I then dispose of. They are mostly alive sometimes dead.
We have had a woodworm and damp specialist in who sprayed the attic as there had been evidence of historic woodworm and it was part of our mortgage agreement - but to be honest he seemed really incompetent - and although we have a warranty I can tell it’s going to be a challenge to get him back to spray again or try a different treatment. These beetles appear mostly in the bathroom but sometimes in the kitchen, and I’m trying to identity that what are? Are they woodworm? Or could they be plaster beetles ? (We installed ventilation in the bathroom but previous to that it was mouldy and damp)
Can anyone help? Skin crawls at the thought of these beetles……
