Thank you for this information. It is all very, very useful to me.
I expect that the key is probably debris food that has fallen
under the stove & fridge, since all my cupboards seem
untouched and clean. (Almost every food item is sealed.)
I will certainly have an exterminator do what they can about
the carpet beetles (monthly spraying for over a year seems
recommended) and will be more diligent at vacuuming away
dust and such that accumulates where they were found.
