It's not an Oriental nymph; it's an American cockroach nymph. It has turned fairly dark as it has dried out on the glue board. The telltale ID feature is it's reddish brown, at least in the anterior portions; the posterior has turned dark as it mummified. More importantly look at the yellow border at the edge of the pronotum. Now Google Oriental cockroach photos and you'll see all sorts of photos of Orientals and Americans (plus a few PA woods roaches thrown in to boot) and you'll see the Oriental is totally black, even the nymphs, and the American has that yellow border around the pronotum.

Obviously, insects can get into buildings and be found on monitoring devices such as sticky traps, but they do not warrant any type of control. How do you determine control when nothing in particular is infested? Any resources on threshold levels would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Amy K.

I think the museum has central HVAC. I shall send the pictures soon. A monitoring plan will be made to know which pests are there. Thanks for suggesting the program. Regards. Dr. Abdul Rauf From: ad...@museumpests.net [mailto:ad...@museumpests.net] On Behalf Of bugma...@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 5:34 AM To: pestlist@museumpests.net Subject: Re: [pestlist] IPM in ART MUSEUM This is a message from the Museumpests List. To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- Dr. Rauf - We're talking about India! The small water fountains are not significantly contributing the the overall humidity in the museum. The high daily humidity results in the entire museum having an elevated humidity. If there is no central HVAC system in the museum, then there's not much that can be done about humidity, except to keep air circulating so pockets of ultra-high humidity are not allowed to form. Strategically-placed fans may help. Even ceiling fans will help to circulate the humid air. What's more important is installing a thorough glueboard program to monitor what's roaming around the museum. The glueboard program will tell you what's present, densities of pests, and the direction from which they are coming. You can then decide on building modifications to prevent movement and ingress. In a humid environment, pesticide applications are but a temporary solution. Without having some photographs of the museum, it's difficult to assess any further measures.
