For the larvae you could use Habrobracon wasps. There are two more articles in Restauro about treatments with Antagonists, like Trichogramma and one who discribes the long term experience with Trichogramma in one German Museum. In Europe the use of parasitic wasps is in the beginning in Museums and also published 2011 in a IPM-conference in Italy (Querner/Biebl).
