Learn about the bugs and beasties that lurk all around the House and how our Collections Care Team make sure to protect all the wonderful interiors against them!
In this talk, our Collections Care Team will share how they keep a close watch on these tiny visitors from carpet beetles to moths. Using insect traps, regular inspections, and careful housekeeping, they are able to spot signs of activity early and protect the House’s beautiful interiors.
Find out how this important behind-the-scenes work helps preserve the historic rooms and objects so they can continue to be enjoyed for generations to come.
