How about freezing them? No chemicals involved but I doubt termites would survive.

Oh yum! All seriousness aside, I think that the albums are too big to fit in my nukeand they have metal parts which would cause lovely fireworks in there if Icould fit them. Thanks for your suggestion. I am hoping for a chemical solution, as itwere. CHEERS!

I have just received, in trust, three albums of photos from 1925 to1961. They have some tell tale termite holes in the pages of the albums. Iwant to protect the photos and I certainly cannot afford to bring livetermites into my home. My hope is for y'all to recommend some chemical thatI can place in a very large zip lock baggie with each album (but not incontact with it), seal it for the correct amount of time to allow the chemto fumigate the album. What chemical would kill termites but not harm photos? CHEERS!
