Alex and Bill,

It is true that the stegobinone pheromone is the same for the Stegobium 
(drugstore/biscuit beetle)  and the Anobium ( furniture beetle). Anobium 
require a much higher pheromone dose in the lure.

The Japanese HIRESIS lures are actually a mimic pheromone. A mimic in this case 
is one that is extremely close to the original, but with slight differences 
that make it either easier to synthesize or make it more stable. In the case of 
the HIRESIS lures, we know that it works to attract Stegobium. We have ongoing 
trials in Europe to see if multiple HIRESIS lures in a single trap will attract 
Anobium. Though we are hopeful that this works, with the pheromone being a 
mimic it is not a sure thing. I will keep you posted. We should have some 
results in a few months.

Hi Pat

I read somewhere that the Anobium pheromone was the same as the Stegobium 
pheromone? If this is the case we can source them from Japan.

Best wishes

Hi Pat,

Thanks for the info… very interesting.

To confirm, I didn’t actually check with the supplier in Australia to see if 
they actually supplied the trap, and I’m not aware of anyone using such traps.

Cheers,

Dan

Daniel,



The company Agrisense in the UK had a lure that was effective for Anobium 
punctatum back in the 1990's. The picture on the Australian website appears to 
be an Agrisense trap. Sometime in the early 2000's the lab doing this synthesis 
work for Agrisense discontinued synthesizing this pheromone and thus Agrisense 
discontinued selling the lures. I have not heard that they overcame this 
problem.



Insects Limited has attempted to synthesize this compound unsuccessfully. It is 
an extremely difficult pheromone to synthesize and my guess is that is the 
reason that the Agrisense lab quit making it in the first place.



I would be interested to see if the company in the Australian website can 
actually supply this product. If so, I would like to hear how it is working for 
anyone using it. If there is a pheromone that has sound chemistry that has been 
field tested product being offered here, Insects Limited would be more than 
happy to carry it for the US market. I tend to be a little skeptical after more 
than a decade with only a few products being offered that have basically no 
attraction to Anobium.



In the mean time, Dr. Uwe Nolt of the Johann Heinrich von Thunen- Institute 
(vTI)in Germany has done lots of great work with Anobium by monitoring with 
light traps and paper coverings on focused areas of wooden structures and 
wooden collections.

Does ant one know of a type of large moth which has reddish wings and is much 
larger than a normal moth ? This morning when I came into work, we had this 
flying around the museum store I have as yet been unable to capture it. Our 
store is an industrial building and it is now sitting high up on one of the 
outside walls.I am located in Wakefield in West Yorkshire -  at first 
because of the red wings I thought it might be a butterfly but it is small for 
a butterfly.

I could not get a photo of it flying around

Hello,

I've recently found these flying insects inside and outside of the historic 
building in Virginia where I work.  I don't recall ever seeing them before, but 
this June they are out in abundance.  They are just under a centimeter in 
length and are yellow-green in color [please see attached photograph].   I'm 
new to IPM and have checked all of my resources without coming up with an 
identification.  Could they be fungus gnats?  Any help would be very much 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Kate Hughes

Hi Pat,

isn't stegobinone as a pheromone of Stegobium paniceum effective to Anobium 
punctatum too and very similar in chemical structure to the sex attractant of 
it?

Hi all,



I am looking for a US based supplier of Anobium traps + Anobium punctatum 
standard pheromone lures. I've obviously already looked at, and contacted, the 
obvious places (i.e., those suppliers listed on museumpest.net), but they 
couldn't help me.



I've seen these in Australia (and the UK, and Germany) referred to as "The 
Anobid Trap": cf. http://www.entosol.com.au/prodpc_b.htm



Anyone have any ideas for US suppliers?



Cheers,



Dan

Dear friends and colleagues,

I am happy to announce the date for the next meeting on Integrated Pest 
Management in museums, archives and historic buildings has been fixed for the 
5-7. June 2013 in Vienna. I welcome you to come to Vienna for this 
international conference at the Kunsthistorische Museum in the center of the 
city. www.khm.at 

In the tree-day meeting I want to cover three big topics on IPM in museums: (1) 
Treatments methods for infested objects, what methods are we using today and 
what changes and new regulations can we expect in the future, 
(2) Integrated Pest Management concept and case studies and 
(3) biology of pests species, how can we use this information in IPM. There 
will be some exiting excursions as part of the program and some really special 
evening events...

There will be also a short two-day course on IPM (3-4. of July), please let me 
know as soon as possible if you are interested.

This is just the first announcement for you to save the date. As soon as the 
homepage for the conference is finished and I am ready for the abstract 
submission, I will contact you again.

All the best for 2012 and hope to see you all in Vienna 2013,

Pascal
