Jo -
Freezing the piece at minus 20 F for 72 hours will kill all stages of drywood
termites. However, you have to decide if the piece can be frozen without
damage being done to it. Most of the time, you can wrap it in polyethylene and
put it in a chest freezer. Or sometimes you might need to take it to a frozen
food company and put it in one of their cold rooms. They usually have one for
meat and butter storage which maintains minus 20 F.

someone can help us identify the “frass” that fell out of our Purvis Young
piece after it was installed in the gallery. The piece was behind a vitrine,
and we think a visitor possibly bumped into it shaking loose the debris you see
above. Are these eggs? Frass? Feces? Any information is appreciated, and
thank you, this list is a much appreciated resource. Jo Bjorkman Collections
