Actually, if you keep them in the freezer for longer than a week, you
can also kill the eggs and larvae.  A very useful paper to check is:

Strang, T.J.K.  1992.  A review of published temperatures for the

Collection Forum is the journal of the Society for the Preservation
of Natural History Collections (SPNHC).
