Control of powder-post beetles: Complete kills of Lyctus beetles infesting hardwood floors achieved in 5–10 minute applications of infrared radiation
1956
R Pence
Exposure time required for the fast, efficient heat of infrared radiation to kill Lyctus powder-post beetles—in all stages of development—is governed by the thickness of the infested hardwood floor. Once the floor thickness has been determined and the exposure time known, 100% mortality of the Lyctus beetles can be expected under every square inch of area covered by a recently developed infrared unit.
