Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a practical guide to traditional methods of cleaning and restoring insect specimens. It summarizes the challenges of cleaning dirty and moldy insects, and the limitations of widely used methods. The author comprehensively explains, with examples, a novel non-aqueous relaxation technique for insects that does not require water vapor, which can damage the specimens. Compared to aqueous methods, this technique is more reliable and effective in removing different types of dirt, and is less likely to cause damage. This technique will appeal to individuals and institutions with collections of insect specimens that require professional treatment or maintenance.
