This work gives the attention to a problem of furniture beetles fumingation with formalin. Steams of formaldehyde after four full days of fumingation in temperature of 21°C degrees gave 100% of mortality amongst larvas of furniture beetle, increasing the temperature by 30°C degrees shortened the time of fumingation up to twenty four hours. Formalin is the 40% solution of formaldehyde in water. The main problem is the increase of humidity in gas chamber amounting to 54% at the beginning and going up to relative humidity of 100% within 5 hours. The influence of the steams on gilts and polichromes was also tested. After two weeks of fumingation with formaldehyde there were found dark stains on the gilts. Also on one of polchromed samples there was found resin spil in the spot where the knot was.

The intention of this study is to present the complex question of the painted decorations of the interior of the wooden church of St. Stanislaw the Bishop in Boguszyce near Rawa Mazowiecka. The founder of the object, built and decorated in 1558, was Wojciech Boguski of the Rawicz coat of arms, at the time the steward of the Mazovian royal estates belonging to Queen Bona. The Renaissance murals on the walls and ceiling of the discussed church are an imitation of a brick church interior with lavish architectural details, monumental murals and vast areas covered with inscriptions. The ceiling is an illusionistic image of a stucco or brick Renaissance counterpart derived from Serlian motifs. The painted ceiling decorations in the Boguszyce church demonstrate considerable formal and stylistic analogies to the solutions applied in the collegiate church in Pultusk. The Boguszyce polychromes are an outstanding and totally unique work, insufficiently recognised and deserving more extensive popularisation. Their merit is even greater considering that the authors presumably originated from a still little-recognised sixteenth-century milieu of Warsaw-based artists. At the end of the twentieth century the valuable monument was in a catastrophic condition. A leaky roof and a permanent displacement of the construction elements threatened with a collapse of the building and total damage to the paintings. Complex conservation and restoration of both the object and the celling polychrome were initiated in 1997. The work was preceded by specialist studies intent on determining the techniques of the execution of the polychrome and its state of preservation. The foremost task involved halting the damage incurred to the wooden underpainting and the painted decoration as well as the removal of secondary layers deforming the polychrome. The aim of the restoration was to recreate the lost aesthetic merits of the paintings. The causes of the damage were diagnosed, and an optimal selection of conservation methods and material was based on current knowledge.
