Hi all, Thanks for the responses, Stephan the resources are much appreciated. Alex could you explain why you wouldn’t advise the treatment?

We are looking into heat treatment as a pest eradication method as our anoxic chamber is out of commission, and I would love to get your advice/experiences as I haven’t undertaken a heat treatment before. We would be using a contractor with a humidity controlled heat chamber and can choose the temperature and humidity settings, as well as length of time for the treatment. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated, particularly around treatment details, i.e. length of time to get material core up to temperature, how long to keep material at temperature, and length of cool down period. Thank you!
