It is great to have a number of options from people who really know what they're talking about. If anyone could figure out how to do the same thing with other facets of life, let me know!
Given the time it's been inside and the seeming lack of actual insect body parts or frass in the collected debris, I'm not doing anything in a hurry. On the other hand, I haven't gone to see it yet, after which I might change my mind. The truck (for either freezing or heating) might be a good idea. The problem in New York is finding a place to park the truck! Sprayed chemicals, even benign ones, are a hard sell, because so many people are phobic about "chemicals." If various people/organizations hadn't made mis-leading statements about the benefits and safety of so many other things for so long, I might be critical of this point of view. Telling someone that a chemical that kills bugs is safe in a public space is likely to be a losing proposition, even when it's made from flowers!.
