Dear Eleanor, Choosing a treatment will depend on many things the type and amount of material to be treated, the type of infestation, your institutions technological and financial capabilities, etc. It often isnt a question of which is better but which is more appropriate or feasible for your situation.
I would recommend that you review the material on www.museumpests.net under the Treatment tab. The fact sheets and the few case studies there start to outline what kinds of treatments MAY be appropriate for different types of issues. Then you might be able to send a question to this listserv with more detail about your particular issues which will help colleagues give advice that would be more specific to your needs.
