Increasing the Temperature of the Room
The infested room or place can be heated to a higher temperature. This will kill the booklice, as they cannot survive high heat.
At what temperature do booklice die?
Booklice depend on warm temperatures and humidity to survive. Ideal temperatures and relative humidities for survival range from 75-82°F and 75-90% RH. They are negatively affected by low humidity (50-60%) and can die within weeks if levels remain low.
Do booklice like heat?
Booklice cause little direct damage to plants and wood because they feed chiefly on mould. ... They prefer warm, moist conditions that are conducive to the growth of mould and mildew and require humidity of at least 60%.
