Preservatives for collections
All insect collections need some protection against Museum beetle and mites etc. Naphthalene is suitable for this purpose and will prevent any new attack, but will not kill Museum beetle after an infestation has started. All reference collections should be inspected regularly for infestation. It is very difficult to kill museum beetle eggs although this can be done with care by giving each specimen a few seconds in a microwave oven (less the pin!), or 3 days in a deep freezer.
