Subject: Pesticide for carpet beetles
**** Moderator's comments: Please respond directly to the author. We have developed a non-toxic pesticide for use on carpet beetles. I would like to test the product by providing samples to any conservation department interested in trying it. Please provide contact, address, etc. The product is safe for export and requires no special handling, is safe around children, pets and does no harm if it comes into contact with an artifact regardless of material of manufacture.It is dry, colorless, stainless, leaves no evidence of its previous placement, and has a pleasant fragrance. Once we have proven efficacy we will make it available for purchase to all museums, galleries, etc. Please send information to; Ron Stark, Director S/R Laboratories srlabs [at] earthlink__net *** Conservation DistList Instance 13:16 Distributed: Tuesday, August 24, 1999 Message Id: cdl-13-16-002 ***Received on Saturday, 21 August, 1999
