6346 I found this small copper colored worm on my daughter’s clothing. What is it and what do I do to get rid of it, assuming there are more? From Niverville, MB

Number 6346 This is a larva of a carpet beetle (Coleoptera: Dermestidae); it appears to be in the genus Attagenus (black carpet beetles and allies). Click here or elsewhere on this site for some control recommendations.
