Many thanks for all your input.  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!.
