It’s all very interesting pesticide versus heat versus freezing versus anoxia. I can report back that the discussion is still very much active on our end regarding the object. I will let the list know what it is and what we’ve decided to do when I can. Stay tuned

From: pestlist@googlegroups.com<mailto:pestlist@googlegroups.com> <pestlist@googlegroups.com<mailto:pestlist@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Lisa Bruno Sent: Tuesday, 17 May 2022 8:55 AM To: pestlist@googlegroups.com<mailto:pestlist@googlegroups.com> Subject: [PestList] NY State laws and Vikane I have a delicate situation that I’m grappling with and I wonder if this list serve could help. We are potentially receiving a large art object (vehicular) that has been outside for 10 years. Various parties are concerned about pests and discussions of fumigation, heat treatment, etc have started. I have gotten the current owners to place blunder traps to see what we catch. Does anyone know where I can get confirmation on NY State laws regarding fumigation with poison. Heat treatment has been suggested and I’m concerned about the mixed media components of the work. What are people’s experiences with heat? Sorry I can’t give more details. Feel free to contact me off line. Thanks!
