Well I got most of my information I had from a post you had in another forum so I will say thank you! Learned a lot about what temperatures, how long, percentage of beetles/larvae/eggs die from freezing.

I definitely looked into the methods, and tried to help some guys along. Just stopped doing it myself years and years ago.

Maybe I've just been lucky, and will find this in the morning....

Me and my wife were looking at that same image earlier... My heart sank and anxiety kicked in that's why I'm freezing my sticks now.
