As follows from the proceedings of the Institute on Historical Monuments and Conservation Problems, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Toruń, the conservators of historical monuments do not command of a sufficient stock of knowledge of employing fungicides and insecticides to fight biological pest destroying those monuments. This is a problem of great significance since the incorrect application of those agents is liable to neutralize their action and, even, to damage the monuments concarned or impair their beauty (crystallization, washing away of paint, change of the colouring of plaster). Not infrequently cases are recorded of only those chemical agents being used which are currently available on the market or at the conservation workshop concerned. They are usually the pesticides effective but in some instances and unsuitable in others. The basic components o f the so-called biocides should be the compounds which — without damaging the historical monument concerned — disinfect it and protect from decay in future. The specification given in the table prepared by the author aims at propating the effective methods o f disinfection of historical monuments and their protection from biological pest. The data comprised therein are based on numerous items of specialist literature and on the research conducted by the staff of the Institute’s Department for Conservation of Paper and Leather. The conservators may follow the author’s directions with-out any fear of destroying the historical monuments handled by them.

Prof. Dr. Robert Fuchs presents the outcome of long-term research conducted by the Chair of the Conservation and Restoration of Books, Graphic Works and Book Paintings at Fachhochschule Koln on the impact of agents applied universally for “freeing” historical library and archival objects from pests: microorganisms and insects. Particular attention is drawn to the influence of those agents upon changes which they produce in historical objects, often fatal and leading to irreversible damage. Furthermore, the microorganisms are not eliminated to the expected degree. The author proposes to replace chemical agents combating mould, bacteria, and insects by natural climatic factors hampering their further growth, and to apply anti-insect methods which do not damage objects. Fie recommends emphasis upon the necessity of retaining cleanliness and suitable storage conditions. Finally, importance is ascribed to the protection of people — storehouse workers, restorationers, and users, an issue which is often completely ignored.
