A local historical society in my area is looking for answers/information
to a pest problem they have recently discovered. They have standard
exhibit glass cases in 2 large rooms. They discovered some "weevils" in
one case that contained a hornet nest. They removed the nest and cleaned
the case. Now the same pests have shown up in a case that has tobacco
(yum, organic) and in a case that has only metal. They are looking for
ideas to control the pests besides museum-wide fumigation. Suggestions?
References to read? Thank you.
