Jacob Jacob's household had idols

In Genesis 35:2-3

2 So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, “Remove the foreign gods which are among you, and purify yourselves and change your garments; 3 and let’s arise and go up to Bethel, and I will make an altar there to God, who answered me on the day of my distress and has been with me wherever I have gone.”

I'm in particularparticularly interested in the part where it's mentioned he "said to his household". Is this passage speaking of the objects Rachel stole from Laban?
