The ocean containers are fairly tight aren't they Bob?  I know I store comb
in three tractor trailer boxes that are fairly tight.  I have thought that
a fan blowing air over an open container of glacial acetic and through two
perforated pipes of the type used in sewage tile beds at the top two edges
of the trailer (acetic fumes are heavier than air and sink) might treat
comb quite simply without wrapping etc.

But we don't have much trouble getting freezing temperatures here.
