Hi

I am so unfortunate as to have my small collection of Syrphidae infected with som small white fugus. It makes a web of hyphae around the flies and I would very much like to get rid of them.

I remember I have read an article in a norwegian journal, Insekt-Nytt, about a solution within the last few years. It involved dipping them in alchohol but I cannot remember the details. Maybe one of you would be able to help or know another methode.

Yours Rasmus
