Re: [PestList] RE: Yeast traps

['Thomas Parker' via MuseumPests]

Group - An efficient way to trap lots of silverfish and other small, crawling insects in sensitive locations, is as follows: Use a flat, small glue board.  Place a penny in the four corners and one in the center of the glue.  Place the flat, modified glue board upside down along the baseboard where you suspect silverfish may be originating.  Silverfish love dark cracks and crannies and will readily crawl beneath the glue board and be caught.  Tom Parker Entomologist On Nov 22, 2022, at 4:38 AM, 'Sampson, Amy' via MuseumPests <pestlist@googlegroups.com> wrote:  Hello Volker,   I’m afraid because of the location (government department), I was not permitted to take pictures or get close enough to examine it. The contractor is Rentokil, and all the information that the technician was able to provide me with was that it is a sticky trap, and uses yeast as a lure. As I say, I’ve not encountered this type of trap before and would like to determine if it’s particularly useful in the event of silverfish infestation, or it’s just a general purpose-type trap.   Thanks,   Amy.     From: pestlist@googlegroups.com <pestlist@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Hingst, Volker Sent: 22 November 2022 09:10 To: pestlist@googlegroups.com Subject: [PestList] AW: Yeast traps   EXTERNAL: This email originates from outside of The National Archives. dear amy,   what kind of sticky trap is it? please tell us the name and company of the trap – and send us a picture.   there are so many different sticky traps in use: some have only glue on top - others use different kind of food attractans often they use plant an animal proteins.   as far as I know contains dried yeast around 40 % protein, 7 % fat and 40 % carbohydrates. so this is nothing special…   best regards   V o l k e r      Dipl.-Restaurator Volker Hingst IPM-Koordinator --------------------------------------- LVR - Archivberatungs- und Fortbildungszentrum Technisches Zentrum / Papierrestaurierung Ehrenfriedstr.19 50259 Pulheim Tel.: 02234-9854-236 Fax:  0221-8284-2479 E-Mail: volker.hin...@lvr.de Internet: www.afz.lvr.de     Von: 'Sampson, Amy' via MuseumPests <pestlist@googlegroups.com> Gesendet: Dienstag, 22.

They are employing a commercial IPM contractor who are placing sticky traps that have a yeast lure inside them. I can’t seem to find much information about yeast in relation to pest management – has anyone come across anything like this before? Are they particularly successful for use with silverfish? Any information would be appreciated.   Thanks,   Amy.       Amy Sampson Preventive Conservator T: 020 3908 2435 | W: www.nationalarchives.gov.uk Twitter:@UkNatArchives The National Archives, Kew, Richmond, Surrey TW9 4DU     Please don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National Archives Disclaimer This email and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the use of the individual(s) to whom they are addressed.
