Flea Larvae? - Ask Extension
They're in the living room carpet of a rental home. I'm guessing flea larvae because the tenant does have a dog. Can you help identify?

Expert Response
These are a kind of larvae but not flea larvae but of a kind of fly. Sometimes they will crawl away from what they are breeding on or in. To stop this you need to figure out where they are breeding. Please see the following information from our website,
