Martin,

In my early days in entomology we would add a little carbolic acid to the water to prevent fungal growth.

Subject	[IUFRO RG 7.03 FORENT] Fungi in my Relaxing Chamber

Folks,
As I believe, we can not separate the insects from the fungi they facilitate (or vice versa), this pathologist has gone over to the dark side and begun to study entomology. So this amateur entomologist has a question for the professional entomologists: "What volatile fungicide can I add to my relaxing chamber to prevent the growth of fungi ?"

Yours,
Dr. Martin MacKenzie, Forest Pathologist
