The museum admin., is asking an IPM Plan for managing the pests inside the Art Museum. There are small water fountains inside the museum in sculpture area. One can feel humidity inside in some outside rooms. Give some guidelines specially for monitoring devices to be installed and the IPM.

Look at Atlantic Paste Glue or Bell Laboratories on-line for their inventory of all sorts of glueboards. You want those which will sit flat on the floor; not plastic trays.

I’m currently looking at the cost effectiveness of IPM in small museums and how it can be carried out on a very small or non-existent budget, so this information would be very useful.

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.

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.
