I think, the information in the article "Similarly, pheromone traps are widely available commercially to allow emerging adult males to be trapped" isn´t accurate, because I don´t know a commercial distributor in Europe or America, who produce actual the pheromone of anobium punctatum. Longer time ago (over 10 years), there was Agrosense, who had sold the pheromone for a.p.. PS We have one company here in South-germany who is working a long time with a Freezing-chamber against woodboring-insects with -30 till -40 degrees inside the wood. I think this is working, but not for all objects in restauration. Also in Denmark, were Freezing is often used (see IPM-conference Vienna 2013).

In addition, James Wermuth brings up some testing in which freezing did not kill larvae. Any comments?
