⚠ Caution: External sender Graham Holloway (University of Reading) may have some stock in culture. Otherwise, in a couple of months there should be plenty of adults feeding on Asteraceae in gardens all over Britain. Good luck!

I am a student on the MSc Conservation for Archaeology and Musuems course at University College London and am currently undertaking a placement year at the Horniman Musuem and Gardens. I am hoping to do some research on investigating the efficacy of English pot marigold (calendula officinalis) essential oil as a repellent against varied carpet beetles, Anthrenus verbasci. Although there is some skepticism of the effect of essential oils as repellents, I feel there is a need to investigate alternatives to synthetic based chemicals which could be an addition to IPM strategies. I was wondering whether anyone knows how best to source adult A.verbasci in England in order for me to undertake some experiments? I would appreciate any help.
