Pest Management Learning Opportunity


It’s a bird, it’s a plane, oh #$@#% it’s a moth!


Historic Cherry Hill, in conjunction with Spicer Art Conservation,  is
considering offering a series of FREE Integrated Pest Management workshops
in the next few years.  Currently, we are gauging the need for such a
workshop among the museum community.   In the planning stage, the workshop
would would cover a few major topics:

--What is infestation, how do we recognize it?

--Preventing infestation in your collection and what to do when infestation
is found.

--Pest abatement measures covered might include freezing, vacuuming,
environmental modifications etc.

--Prevention topics might include eliminating pest attractors, high-risk
types of objects, climate and environmental concerns and other subjects.


Does your institution have a need for a workshop of this type?  If so, what
specifically would you like to hear about?

Let us know if you would consider attending a workshop like this -- Email or
call Erin Crissman, Curator, Historic Cherry Hill to give your feedback
about this important topic!

Thanks!
