Hello Joanna,
It is difficult to identify a pest from the
Bernice, let me echo Carolyn's thoughts on these critters. Both the brown
scavenger beetle (fungus beetle) and psocids indicate that you have moisture
problems. Either high humidity or leakage. A combination of controlling the
moisture and housekeeping usually does the trick. Look for

Hi Neil.
When you remove your package from the freezer, it is best
gradually warm it up over time while keeping an eye on
the temp.
So, my question is, over how long a period is Allow them to come up to the
ambient temperature slowly? 5 hours? 24 hours?

Hi Armando -

In addition, you need to take into account the type of collection. Some
collections are more sensitive than others. For example, if the
collection contains a lot of wool and feather then it is highly
sensitive to all pests that eat this type of material. And do not forget
the archival material
These are great ideas. A combination of blocking, keeping your drains clean
and the traps topped off are a good way to reduce these kind of populations.
If you have drains that are no longer used, cap them! I experienced a
situation some years ago where we had a serious invasion of American
