Beetle eyes are a common potion ingredient.
History
In 1991, Harry Potter saw a barrel of them at Slug & Jiggers Apothecary in Diagon Alley, priced at five Knuts a scoop.
Over the course of his education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry's trunk had accumulated a layer of filth along the bottom including, among other things, desiccated beetle eyes. Harry cleaned out this mess while packing for his final departure from 4 Privet Drive in 1997.[1]
