Download or read book Inert Gases in the Control of Museum Insect Pests written by Charles Selwitz and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1999-12-01 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A serious problem facing museum professionals is the protection of collections from damage due to insects. This book describes successful insect eradication procedures developed at the Getty Conservation Institute and elsewhere, whereby objects are held in an atmosphere of either nitrogen or argon containing less than 1000 ppm of oxygen—a process known as anoxia—or in an atmosphere of more than 60 percent carbon dioxide. Techniques, materials, and operating parameters are described in detail. The book also discusses adoption of this preservation technology, presenting the development of these methods and instructions for building and upgrading treatment systems, as well as recent case histories. The Research in Conservation reference series presents the findings of research conducted by the Getty Conservation Institute and its individual and institutional research partners, as well as state-of-the-art reviews of conservation literature. Each volume covers a topic of current interest to conservators and conservation scientists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... a practical, colour-illustrated, working handbook for the curator, conservator and all persons concerned with the management of collections. It is an essential guide to the recognition of insect, rodent and bird pests with advice on the practical steps required to prevent and control damage to collections. The latest information on the trapping and detection of pests is presented together with guidelines for pest recording. The author explains the advantages and disadvantages of physical and chemical control measures, including concerns about the use of pesticides and their effects on staff and the environment. In addition, he demonstrates that Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is not only a safer option, but also a more cost-effective solution to the complex problems of pest control. This book offers comprehensive guidance for the necessary action and treatment of any pest problem likely to be encountered in museums, galleries, libraries, archives and historic houses."--Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to pest identification Scope This booklet is designed to allow practical identification of pest insects and some insects which are environmental indicators in Museums and other heritage buildings in the British Isles, as part of IPM pest monitoring, some commonly encountered non-insect arthropods (springtails, spiders, woodlice, etc.) are also included. Definitions Pest - a kind of insect which has the potential to damage museum collections by eating or soiling objects or labels, or to provide a nuisance or health hazard to museum staff and visitors. Environmental indicator - a kind of insect which lives in environmental conditions (e.g. temperature/humidity) that are unsuitable for collections, and whose presence can be used to infer unsuitable conditions for collections. There is some overlap between what is a pest and an environmental indicator since some pests, e.g. silverfish, can be used to infer that environmental conditions are unsuitable. A practical approach to identification While there are about 20,000 species of insect in Britain, only about 40 species are Museum pests in the UK. This means that traditional complicated identification keys are not necessary and pest species can be recognised by simple aspects of their appearance, such as size, shape, colour, form of the antenna, etc., and it is possible to learn the common types fairly quickly. This booklet allows for the recognition of major groups: beetles, moths, booklice, silverfish and others, and then matching with known pest species. Mostly the features necessary for identification can be seen on specimens stuck on sticky traps. With experience a good hand lens and good lighting should be sufficient to identify most pests; a binocular microscope is helpful but not essential. However not all specimens will be identifiable. Where known, the habitat, feeding habits and type of damage can also give a clue to the type of pest since dif.

This book was released on 1993-12-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveys of natural history and art museums indicate that beetles belonging to the families Anobiidae and Dermestidae and moths belonging to the family Tineidae are major pests. Other groups such as termites and silverfish may also be extremely important, especially in southeast Asia. Current control recommendations include the use of space fumigation or surface residual spraying. In addition to the need to train museum personnel to use these insecticides, there is always the potential for damage to rare antiquities and artifacts. The primary objectives of this study were to determine: (1) if controlled or modified atmospheres were lethal and (2) to establish the minimum time required to provide 100% kill of all developmental stages of insects likely to infest materials, objects, and artifacts in museums.
