Hi Fletcher,
We dealt with a similar problem earlier this year in Sarasota. In our case it
was a historic doorframe (not original to the building) installed around one of
our gallery doorways. Because tenting the entire museum wasn’t feasible, we
deinstalled the doorframe, placed it in a truck

Unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites enter a structure from the air,
not from the soil. So far, you say that you have found them in one relatively
small area. Because drywood termite colonies are usually much smaller and may
be restricted to individual pieces of wood, they can often

Greetings,
Why not try Nuvan Prostrips---active is dichlorvos. You would have to put
affected items in a sealed bag with one of these fumigant strips and follow
the label for exposure time.
By the way, these are terrific pictures---great for teaching purposes.

Vikane gas, as it comes in its cylinder, has impurities in it, which may damage
collection materials. It certainly will tarnish silver and certain other
metals. It has amazing penetrating properties and therefore would not be able
to be confined to the lobby area of the museum. I
Hire termite dogs and get to the root of the problem, what ever it takes.
If you chose Vikane, expect to retreat every few years. Please, before you
