They prefer to nest in moist areas where temperature is beneficial, incredibly humid among 75% and 95%. In urban areas particularly households, they are usually observed in attics, basements, bathtubs, sinks, kitchens, old books, and showers.

Apart from that, they feed on carpet, clothing, java, dandruff, glue, hair, a few paints, paper, images, plaster, and sugar. Wallpapers are not an exception too due to the fact that these creatures feed on it because of the paste. Overall, anything that has polysaccharide contents are considered meals for those pests.
