i hate to tell you this, but....
just because you vacuumed them up, doesn't mean they're dead!

carpet bettles are very common. The exterminator will come and treat the floor boards but won't treat your carpet. Make sure you throw out your vaccum bag in a sealed plastic bag as to try and eliminate further infestations.

Did you leave the door open today? With the warmer weather, sometimes they come from outside
