Hi Colleagues,


Can anyone tell what this beetle is? The body is about 1/4 inch long and the 
antennae are in three segments (not clubbed on the end). It is black. Is it a 
black carpet beetle? 
Thanks for your help!
Sincerely, 
Derya

Group -


 


As Lou Sorkin has correctly stated, it is a larva and perhaps another photo of 
a shed exoskeleton of the Odd Beetle.  It is impossible to determine the sex of 
this
 larva from a photograph.  Yes, it is in the family Dermestidae.  The adult 
male and female look dramatically different from one another.  These photos are 
not of an adult Odd Beetle.

Well, there’s a slight chance I’m wrong as I can’t say I know all the 
Dermestidae family, but it looks like the shed of a varied carpet beetle larva
(Anthrenus verbasci) to me.

Hi Tony,
 
Thanks for all the information. I shall have a read through these, it is good 
to know exactly how much damage they could cause, I’m still trying
 to understand what others in the IPM world count as a ‘jump’ in population? I 
am more than likely being over cautious as the increase is only in a couple of 
traps, and in single figures. All our stores are environmentally controlled and 
monitored and we are
 happy with RH and temp levels, I only use a nilfisk hoover with filters when 
housekeeping.
Maybe it is because it rains so much here!
Best wishes,
 
Laura

Laura - 

The standard work on British Booklice is New's Royal Entomological Society 
Handbook (2005). You can find a reference to it and other literature (most of 
which deals with free-living, rather than domestic species) at


http://www.brc.ac.uk/schemes/barkfly/literature.htm

Liposcelis can certainly do damage in a collection, feeding on insect 
specimens, for example. They will attack a variety of materials as well as 
mould. Starchy products are very attractive, so anything in the archives
 with starch-based glue will be fair game for them. Generally, the amount of 
damage is normally small, and associated mould growth is more likely to cause 
long-term problems. If you can achieve relatively low humidity in the archive 
stores, this will help.

Also note that increasing housekeeping could make the problem worse if it 
involves damp cloths rather than vacuum cleaners.

Dear Gretchen,
 
Thank you so much for your information.
Our RH is closely monitored by a BMS and local tiny tag systems, and has been 
staying within range.

The housekeeping is done every few months, so I might just increase it for the 
moment and monitor, as it is only a very small increase
 in population.
Best wishes,
 
Laura

Psocoptera are generally considered a pest.  They feed on microscopic mold 
which indicates that the relative humidity is too high.  From personal 
experience
 I experienced a huge increase in population just prior to a mold out break.  
At the very least they are an environmental indicator.



The good news is that they can be easily controlled through improved 
housekeeping and reduced RH.



Good luck.

Hi All, I was hoping someone might be able to help in identifying the insect in 
the attached images.  There were two of these (both in unfortunately awkward 
positions) caught on a blunder trap in a corner next to a pipe passing up 
through the floor and along the wall.  This space has high humidity, with known 
populations of silverfish and psocids. Any information would be appreciated!

Hello,
 
Today we discovered hundreds of winged subterranean termites and larva in a 
corridor and bathroom near our collections workroom. The termites are coming up 
through the floors via the trim and through the tile grout in the bathroom. The
 termites are moving down the corridor toward collections areas. Our facilities 
staff was instructed to spray the pests with windex and vacuum them up. This 
doesn’t seem to be a sound solution to our infestation in my opinion. Am I 
wrong? Our building is treated
 yearly for termites, but this infestation has me concerned. What 
recommendations do you have for this issue?



I have attached an image of just one of the traps that I set out this morning. 
Thank you for your time and any suggestions you have.



All the best,

True. Lasioderma have shorter bodies than one pictured here. Elytra would be 
more shiny in addition to the setae Tom mentions.  Head also would be 
relatively larger in Lasioderma compared to Stegobium. This one has the body 
shape of Stegobium and not Lasioderma..

It is NOT a cigarette beetle.  Cigarette beetles are almost round in outline

Hi Cory

It looks like a cigarette beetle (Lasioderma serricorne) to me. Was the wooden 
object associated with food (e.g. grain bins)? We have found cigarette beetles 
on wooden Aboriginal food carriers (coolimons) where food residue had 
penetrated 
the timber.

Best wishes
Alex

 Hi all,
 
 These were found infesting a wooden object and they don't seem the usual 
suspects (anobium, powderpost, etc)  Any ID help would be appreciated.
 
 Regards,
 Cory
