Re: More Beetles!
I found this article on the dreaded beatle. As I suspected it doesn't kill all of the eggs! There are several pest eggs that can live through long periods of time at very cold temps and hatch when the conditions are right.
Another common trick homeowners will try is to freeze
any food or other items they think is the
key to their problems. This is another futile
effort which is just a waste of time. Though
freezing will kill active adults and larva,
the eggs and pupa will readily survive these
conditions for many months. This means you
will have to keep items frozen for long
periods of time if you expect to break the
cycle and you will have to have access to
a large freezer
