Hi All,
I am seeking advice on a termite problem we are having at my museum.  We have 
determined that we have drywood termites infested in the front lobby of our 
museum.  Our extermination company of course wants to fumigate the entire 
museum.  We know that this not possible, so my questions are as follows:  The 
exterminator wants to use Vikane Gas.  Is this the correct gas to use?  Will it 
harm artwork if the gas leaked into a gallery?  Is t his the proper way to 
exterminate drywood termintes?

This is definitely not something that we have ever had to deal with before, so 
any suggestions on how to fix this infestation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kristen
