Hi Lacey, We use the Raid Max Mess Free Dry Fogger. This is the style where you put a small amount of water in the cup and them set the cannister in it to activate the fog. We have used it in a taxidermy display that had a moth problem and did not notice any residue. I can provide more information if you’d like to contact me directly.

Unfortunately, I have looked into all alternative treatments extensively and due to various constraints, fumigation is the only option. We do employ alternatives such as freezing when possible, but sometimes we do have to resort to fumigation. Currently, we are using PT 565 Plus XLO Aerosol Insecticide.

We have a large open-air taxidermy exhibit that has problems despite using preventative measures, so we unfortunately have to resort to fumigation on occasion. We are looking into changing our current fumigant for various reasons, so I was curious if anyone had any non-residual and non-oil-based aerosolized fumigation recommendations.
