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. Lou Louis N. Sorkin, B.C.E.

To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- 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.

[pestlist] anoxic chamber questions
This is a message from the Museumpests List. To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- 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.

FW: [pestlist] IPM conference redux
This is a message from the Museumpests List. To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- 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.

This is a message from the Museumpests List. To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- 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?
