The Arithmetic

The Continuous Carpet Question

This decides the room count more reliably than anything else.

• Does the same carpet run from one room into the next, under the door?
• If yes, larvae travel along it and both rooms need doing
• If there is a threshold bar and separate carpets, they are separate problems
• Hall, stairs and landing are often one continuous run — which counts as more than one room
• A hard floor between two carpeted rooms is a genuine barrier
• Check under the door rather than guessing

Common Two-Room Pairings in a House

• Living room and hallway — continuous carpet, very common
• Two bedrooms off the same landing
• A bedroom and the landing
• The dining room and living room in a through-lounge
• A bedroom and the room where the wool clothing is stored, if different

When It Should Be More Than Two

• Wool carpet running continuously through most of the ground floor
• Damage or larvae found in more than two rooms
• Adults seen in several rooms
• Hall, stairs and landing all carpeted in one run
• You treated one room before and it came back

When one room is enough

• Damage confined to a single rug on a hard floor
• A threshold bar separating the affected room from the rest
• The rest of the house is hard-floored or synthetic-carpeted
• Caught early with damage in one clear spot

Preparing Two Rooms

• Vacuum both thoroughly — edges, corners, under furniture, with the crevice tool
• Empty into a sealed bag and put it outside straight away
• Move furniture away from walls in both
• Lift rugs in both and check underneath
• Clear toys and floor storage
• Empty wardrobes and check wool clothing
• Do not shampoo the carpet first — it does not help and delays treatment

Every Room Total

The Stairs

Worth its own note because it comes up constantly in Kenton houses.

• Hall, stairs and landing are usually one continuous carpet
• Larvae favour the sides of the treads, not the walked middle
• Under the gripper at the back of each tread is a classic spot
• They are treated with the hall and landing rather than as a separate room
• Check them before deciding your count — the damage is easy to miss

Related Questions

Does the hallway count as a room?

Yes, and in a house it is frequently the one that matters most.

Can I do one room now and one later?

On a continuous carpet, no — it reinfests. On separate carpets with a threshold bar, it is possible.

What about a rug in a third room?

Tell us. Sometimes a rug can be dealt with alongside rather than as a full room.
