I used to find them in the museum where I worked, usually in damp places along with plaster beetles and booklice.

RE: [pestlist] Insect ID

To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- Hi there, I've noticed more and more pest ID requests coming in on the pest list. It's been great to see what everyone has wandering through their collections but may I also recommend the very nice people at BugGuide.net for any of you who are not aware of their presence. I have always gotten very reliable IDs from them, usually with a few minutes, at most a few hours. As long as you have a decent photo to submit they are really very helpful.

[pestlist] FW: Zak's software

To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- Hi there, I've only recently joined the pestlist and so apologize if this is a repeat of topics previously covered. We are looking for a good database system for recording IPM information. We had been using Zak's ZPest software for Windows and exporting the data into excel. This was a pretty slow process however and we are now experimenting with an online database by the same developer at collectionpests.com. This too seems to have it's drawbacks and I am wondering if anyone uses it and what their thoughts are. I would also like to know if anyone uses other programs or databases that they could recommend. We have about 80 sticky traps throughout our museum and check them every two months, recording each insect that we find. Then we map any high risk incidents using photoshop. The whole process takes 2-3 days and I would be grateful for any time saving suggestions you might have.
