I'm not sure if we understand why. Try correcting any damp situations outside (e.g., mulch or leaf litter next to the building), seal cracks, and, if possible, keep an 18- to 36-inch vegetation-free zone around the building. --Dan Dan Wixted Pesticide Management Education Program (PMEP) Cornell University Ph (607) 255-7525 204 Rice Hall FAX (607) 255-3075 Ithaca, NY 14853 psep.cce.cornell.edu<http://psep.cce.cornell.edu/> dj...@cornell.edu<mailto:dj...@cornell.edu> From: pestlist-ow...@museumpests.net [mailto:pestlist-ow...@museumpests.net] On Behalf Of Haworth L (Lynsey) Sent: Tuesday, May 23, 2017 7:25 AM To: pestlist@museumpests.net Subject: [pestlist] Pest ID This is a message from the Museumpests.net List.

I'm not sure that they are considered a museum pest, but believe that they are an indication of damp (which we're already aware of). Can anyone provide any other advice on why we may be seeing a sudden influx of these? Additionally, another insect has been spotted that we can't identify (second image). Does anyone recognise this?
