I don't think anyone has a definative answer on how to eliminate ground beetles once they've invaded your home...especially a basement.
Why would you ask a question like that?!!??

You can find beetles in your backyard or your garden , they are deep underneath the ground most of the times . You would see them commonly if you are growing vegetables like lettuce . But i generally prefer going to insect shops .
Bees, butterflies, green lacewings, ground beetles and lady beetles are five insects that would be found in a garden.Specifically, bees and butterflies enjoy a garden's nectar and pollen. Green lacewings and lady beetles favor preying upon aphids. Ground beetles prefer to control such ground pests as cutworms and root maggots.
Generally, the best way to get rid of ground beetles, are to remove and decaying wood inside of your basement, try to keep lights off, as they like lighting, use toads or birds (You likely don't want them in your basement either...), or use insecticides, though safer and more reliable ones are generally only permitted use by licensed contractors.
Water beetles live in water, but they can only survive in fresh water or chlorinated water, they can't live in saltwater. There are over 2,000 species of water beetles and they are found in fresh water all over the world.
