If regular museum IPM (exclusion, improved sanitation, cold treatments) is 
failing and this is an ongoing problem that you are to the point of 
conventional baseboard/crack and crevice treatments I would ask your (PCO) use 
Demand CS® which IS labeled for cigarette beetles in conjunction with 
NyGuard®Insect growth regulator. You may have some pesticide resistance to the 
EcoVia EC and that has stopped working you. Have you tried any Pheromone traps 
yet?

What type of space. What are they going after? How do you think they are 
getting there? Long term problem?

Subject: [PestList] Taurus SC as treatment for cigarette beetles?

[CAUTION: This message originated from outside the Foundation. Do not click

Hi all,

Does anyone have any experience using Taurus SC (9.1% Fipronil) as a treatment 
for cigarette beetles (Lasioderma serricorne)? In the past we have used EcoVia 
EC (20% thyme oil, 14% 2-Phenethyl Propionate, 8% rosemary oil) and it has been 
effective. We got a new contractor recently who insists on using Taurus SC, 
though no information I can find notes it as being effective against cigarette 
beetles—mostly just termites. Because of this I have concerns about long-term 
effectiveness. Will this work for us or should I push harder to go back to 
EcoVia?

Thank you in advance,
