 How do you prevent mold in relaxing jars? I tried naphthalene but it doesn't seem to help.
I also heard about using laundry bleach but I think it could harm the insect.

 I use a small vial of liquid phenol placed in the bottom of the jar. Works like a charm. Smile

Hi. Please delete all photos of E. carrapateira I've uploaded. I did not remember that I already had uploaded that species in particular. Except the pallidifacies (this was not present yet). Thank

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile

@zeegers, your book seems difficult to get from Spain, is there another way?
