Nancy  others,

Actually, I’m putting together a presentation for pest management professionals 
in November (there’s a recertification meeting that time every year in NYC) and 
my topic this time will be something like “W** is stuck in the damn glue?” 
(title to be amended!).  This way the PMPs will have some help in identifying 
the unknowns by their parts because many samples are not in pristine condition 
after capture.  I’ve been amassing quite a number of glue boards over the 
years.  If you have any good ones –and don’t mind parting with them- please 
send them along.  This can be a beginning for some type of publication.

Thank you Rachael,

 

And, you are right, it is interesting to see the photos come in and certainly, 
when specimens are stuck in the glue on insect monitors, they do not look like 
the photographs.  I was thinking that a publication using actual photos and 
their identities would also be useful.

Dear Colleagues,

The PestList is an amazing resource that has grown from its original 11 users 
to over 600 individuals worldwide.  It is gratifying that entomologists, pest 
management professionals and others are available to share their knowledge and 
identify pests that we find in our institutions.  I’d like to remind everyone 
that there resources on identification developed by the IPM Working Group on 
the MuseumPests website http://museumpests.net/identification/ .  Before you 
post to the list please take a moment to check the image library, the Pest Fact 
Sheets and the section with additional Identification Resources.  I don’t want 
to discourage people from posting to the list, but you may find that you can 
answer your own question and learn an additional useful fact or two as well!

 

We also wanted to let you know that virtually all the presentations and posters 
from March’s MuseumPests 2014: Integrated Pest Management for Museums, 
Libraries, Archives and Historic Sites conference and workshop session are now 
online at http://museumpests.net/museumpests-2014-conference/.  We hope that 
you will take some time to peruse this new, valuable content.  Again our 
grateful thanks go to my IPM-WG Co-Chair Ryan Jones, Patty Silence and the 
Preventive Care and Conference staff at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation 
for managing and hosting the program.

 

We have other new content that was completed at the meeting and will be going 
up in the next few weeks.  Please check the website and we’ll notify the list 
as we go.

 

Best,

Rachael 

IPM-WG Co-Chair

My colleagues at the Wisconsin Historical Society and I have been researching 
various anoxic or altered atmosphere options for treatment of pest infested 
collections in preparation for installation of such a system in a planned 
collections storage facility.

I've spoken with many people involved in all aspects of IPM over the past few 
months, and I'm grateful for their willingness to share their knowledge. At the 
moment, we are particularly interested in the EXPM6 nitrogen anoxia chamber 
system. I have heard that there is exactly one in use in North America: I'm 
hopeful I can get in touch with any institutions on this list who are employing 
that system.

Thank You,
Katie Mullen

Obviously my previous message wasn't ready for the list and was supposed to
be directed to other members of the IPM Working Group committee - but now it
is out there nonetheless!   As I wrote, we do not have the resources to have
a large conference/workshop program every year.  So, currently there are no
plans for a program similar to last year.  The IPM-WG does however meet
annually to create and update assets for the museumpets.net website but
participants in these work days are actively involved in IPM in their
institutions and while the days are informative they are not aimed at
teaching IPM.  Our tentative plans for 2015 will be a two-day meeting of the
working group in March with maybe one additional day for tours of the IPM
programs in nearby facilities.  We have not worked out logistics yet and so
it is not clear if this will be open to members to the public.  The emails
about future conferences do show that there remains a great need and
interest in this topic.  There is a conference planned for 2015/16 in Italy
and announcements will be made on the PestList.

 

If you are involved in IPM already and would like to contribute assets for
the museumpets.net website and are interested in spending two days with the
working group please email me and my Co-Chair Ryan Jones (rjo...@cwf.org).
Ultimately, if you are on the PestList listserv (which you can register for
on the museumpests.net website) then you will hear about any future meeting
plans that are open for a general audience.

Best,

Rachael

Howdy folks,

 

Below is the fourth message that we've received to this effect just this
month.  I don't want to mention.  Here is what I've written to the others.  

 

Unfortunately we are merely an ad hoc volunteer group with no official
organizational status and no budget.  We were extremely fortunate that
Colonial Williamsburg  had the means to organize the conference but we do
not have the capacity to do it every year.   The IPM Working Group meets
every year to create and update assets for the museumpets.net website but
that is not like the program we ran this past year and we do not teach IPM.
Our tentative plans for 2015 will be a two-day meeting of the working group
in March with maybe one additional day for tours of the IPM programs in
nearby facilities.  If you are on the PestList listserv (which you can
register for on the museumpests.net website) then you will hear about any
future meeting plans.

Best,

Rachael

IPM WG Co-Chair

 

I don't want to send this to the entire list if the Washington day won't be
open to the general public.  Did we finalize anything with Mary for March?

Hello folks!

 

I was unable to attend the IPM conference this year due to a family
emergency and we are now in the budgeting process for the coming year.  Can
anyone tell me if there will be a conference this coming year, or are these
conferences only every other year?  THANKS!
