Their antennae bear small clubs at the end, which are larger in the males than in females.

. Their larvae may cause considerable damage to wool, fur, feathers, and natural history collections. Due to their larvae feeding on natural fibers they can be found laying eggs in carpets, hence the common name carpet beetles. Primarily this genus breeds in the spring and the summer months living in temperate regions. They are found worldwide due to distribution and are presumed to have arrived in North America in the 1850s. In the wild adult carpet beetles are commonly found on flowering plants or occupying bird nests (such as sparrows and swallows) and bat roosts, though now more commonly as household pests.
