The following was recently posted to the conservation discussion list. I
copy it here for those of you interested in pest control in your institution
or seeking answers to pest problems.

Subject: New list: Integrated Pest Management
I would like to invite anyone interested in an on-going discussion
of issues surrounding Integrated Pest Management programs to join a
Listserv dedicated to this topic. The recent 2003 SPNHC Conference
included several papers on integrated pest management topics.
Additionally, this year the conference included the first Special
Interest Group meeting on IPM which generated a lot of good ideas.
Discussed topics included:
Database models for storing and mapping pest monitoring data
Collaboration to build an image database to aid in
identification of pests captured on sticky traps
Pros and cons of trapping versus direct daily monitoring
Practical tips on freezing and CO2 treatments for pest
eradication
A survey on the types or needs of museum pest monitoring
projects, databases, etc.
In a desire to build on the interest and momentum exhibited at this
meeting we would be pleased to have people continue this discussion
on the Listserv. Leon Zak of ZAK Software, who is part of the Image
Permanence Institute team that developed the environmental
monitoring program Climate Notebook is the generous host of the
List. I have included below his information on how to subscribe.
You, or anyone you know that would like to be on the list can
join by sending an email to [log in to unmask] and putting this
message in the body: "subscribe pmd your_full_name"
If you are aware of a list or persons that would be interested
in our project, please let them know about us and how to
subscribe.
