I have specialty ones for my MiScope setup that are IR, UV and white light.

Many companies make LEDs for this purpose, which has nothing to do with museum per se.

They are walking into your building. It's time for brush sweeps on your doors.

The first two photos are of the same beetle. The third is on a different trap but looks the same as the first. The third is mostly brown, found on a different trap. Not found en masse, but here and there on the same floor and end of the museum building. It will be good to note the time of year so when next year rolls around we're not surprised (we hope).
