RE: [pestlist] What kind of you larvae is this?

2016-08-12 Thread William Shepherd
Hello Oberli,

It looks like it could be a black carpet beetle larvae, though 
it’s quite pale in colour from what I’d expect; however, this could be your 
answer as you say you’ve found previous evidence of carpet beetles. Typically 
black carpet beetles eat animal products so they’re probably not interested in 
your artificial petals if they are synthetic but if they’re made with animal 
products or some of the packaging is they may be after that.

A pest expert can probably weigh in but I thought I’d throw in 
my two cents nickels.

Subject: [pestlist] What kind of you larvae is this?

Good evening,

The Museum of Art and History Fribourg (CH) is moving its collection. For the 
first time I found now a living larvae and I can’t identify it. I would be 
grateful to hear your opinions. The picture is not good, but it’s the best I 
could take with my magnifier and cell phone.
The larvae was found in one of many similar old cardboard boxes, containing 
artificial petals of textile and some sort of colouring and coating. I control 
hundreds of boxes like these and it surprises me that I find empty cocoons of 
Carpet and Cabinet Beetle in it. Do they feed from the cardboard and the old 
newspapers in it? Or could it be the colouring/coating?

I’m looking forward to read your answers!

Best wishes,

You have an outdoor pest - no threat to collections.  However, if you allow 
larger dead insects (large flies, wasps, beetles, American cockroaches) to lay 
about your building, carpet beetle larvae will devour them, leaving piles of 
frass in their wake.  The adult carpet beetles will readily fly to other 
sources of protein in your building and lay more eggs.

Good morning from Madrid
Yesterday we found two alive bugs (one of them at the photo) that we identify 
as cerambycidae, specifically Plagionotus Arcuatus, very close to historical 
books. We dont know these guys are indoor or outdoor pests. They like eating 
historical paper? we are very concerned about that. Any advice will be grateful.


thanks

Hi Javier,



The larvae of this species, like most longhorn/timber beetles, feed
internally on wood/logs of reasonable size, preferring standing or at least
fresh cut wood. I doubt that anything inside your building would support
these as the moisture content will be far too low and as I say they would
be out of their environment.



Eric Duffy, who wrote extensively on this group of beetles (Cerambycidae)
recorded this species from *Quercus*,* Prunus* and *Salix*, but I’m sure
many other species of tree/shrub are utilised also.



So nothing to worry about with these beetle as far as your books and papers
are concerned.


Best regards,

 Hi everyone,

 One of my crew recently found in a sticky (blunder) trap what looks to be a
 large ant.  Not worried about it, just curious as to what kind it is.  I put
 a penny for a sense of how big.  Yes, it's head is separated from its body.
 Both are still moving.  Thanks for any help!

I've seen hundreds of Am cockroaches on glueboards while crawling around

I have to disagree with Ryan.  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.

[pestlist] What a mess - the digest mode. (and I finally typed it correctly)

2011-04-18 Thread Leon Zak
First - Please - DO NOT respond to this on the list, hitting reply sends it
back to everyone on the list, not to just me. 

 

Short version: You're off the digest mode and it is turned off because the
digest mode didn't work like we thought it would, I'll try to figure it out
and let you know when it's OK.

 

You should also know that if you have an auto-responder that responds to the
list I will remove your address from the list.

 

You don't need to read the rest of this for the short version.

 

The explanation version:

 

The email list system is part of a mail program I've been using for almost
15 years and it is used by Intuit (Quicken), Tulane, WebMD, Harley-Davidson,
Boston Celtics, and on and on - no slouch program. You would have thought
that with that kind of endorsement the list manager would be close to
perfect. So much for that.

 

Anyway, I've taken everyone out of the digest mode and put you back in the
standard mode while I figure out what is going on with it. I'm going to be
talking with the company and if it can be fixed I'll try the test list first
that I didn't think I needed to do based on their history. The company is
Ipswitch if you wanted to know.

 

It looked like any images included with emails sent to the list, and that
includes graphics with signatures, were delivered in a system called base
64 which although looking like gibberish was the way you had to encode and
send images way back in the beginning of the net. This is a group that
should be OK with old stuff but when it comes to this we'll make an
exception and see if we can make it new.

It could also be Odd Beetle -- Thylodrias contractus larvae have distinct ridges of hair at the end of each segment. The photo isnt clear enough to tell, but a possibility.-Monica Albe
