It’s -20C not -20F, according to NPS (Conserve O Gram 3/6, July 1994) for effective insect control. We just use basic chest freezers purchased from our local Lowe’s, that don’t have the frost-free option.

Good morning all! I have been trying to find a chest freezer for IPM purposes, but have been unable to find one that is capable of -20F. Evidently there were new federal regulations passed last year, and models that would have been adequate have been "upgraded" are no longer rated for the appropriate temperature for IPM purposes, Has anyone purchased a freezer recently, or have any suggestions?

In 1817, the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Bodewadami Nations made the largest single gift to the early University, when they ceded land through the Treaty at the Foot of the Rapids so that their children could be educated. Through these words of acknowledgment, their contemporary and ancestral ties to the land and their contributions to the University are renewed and reaffirmed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MuseumPests" group.
