There are a number of resources at <URL:http://www.museumpests.net>
under either Resources or Museum Pests Fact Sheets that might be
helpful for you. Several people in the pest control industry are
also on the PestList e-mail list, which can be accessed using the
information from the website. They would be good resources for
specific control strategies if the issue is beyond normal solutions
like freezing.
