The biggest problem for pianos in the Caribbean is carpenter ants, known in Cuba as comegen. PTG member Tom Lloyd visited my piano project there, and he suggests freezing infested pianos overnight in a walk-in freezer. Having read the recent string on frozen pianos I imagine the only side-effect will be comegen icecream. Maybe we should try it on something small, like a harmonica, before going on to guitars and pianos. What thinks the list? Benjamin Treuhaft Send a Piana to Havana Berkeley, Calif.
