We are having trouble with pest infestation in our herbarium and are 
considering heat treating instead of fumigation with toxic gases. (We are 
already working with cleaning the rooms, freezing and bagging of specimens but 
it is not enough). Is there anyone with experience of heat treatment in large 
areas or maybe has any documentation? We are mostly concerned about the effect 
on DNA.

Thanks for any information

Best regards,

Elin
