[Nhcoll-l] Riker Mount Heat Treatment for Pests

[Joanna Chu]

We recently received a donation of several boxes of insect Riker mounts and
at least some have active pest infestations, so we need to either heat
treat or freeze them all. We are fairly limited on freezer space so I was
wondering if anyone has heat treated Riker mount specimens before and has
any info on protocols or contraindications for this method.

Thanks,
