Before anyone asks -40⁰C and -40⁰F are the same.

Fahrenheit increases at approximately twice the rate of Celsius. (ΔF=1.8ΔC), And freezing for Fahrenheit is 32° (32°F=0°C). Using these facts, we can find the conversion equation F=1.8C+32. Since this is a linear polynomial, there is exactly 1 intersection with the function F=C, which we can find by solving it as a system of equations:
IF C=F AND F=1.8C+32 THEN C=1.8C+32.
C=1.8C+32
C-1.8C=32
-.8C=32
(-8/10)C=32
C=32*(-10/8)
=-32*10/8 [If you’re using a calculator, this is probably your input.]
=-10*32/8
=-10* (32/8)
=-10* (2(5)/2(3))
=-10* (2^(5-3))
=-10* 2^2
=-10* 2*2
=-10* 4
=-40
∴ -40°C = -40°F.

Carpet beetles amaze me. How do they get enough moisture and nutrients to survive? Their food source is essentially inedible to any other organism, even microbes. How do they make that work?
They love dead skin yum yum

The disgustingness of carpet is also amazing.

Most fibers can deal with a lot of heat- nuke new stuff in 140-200°f.
And baking soda kills a lot of bugs, its good to keep some around your craft bins!Its good to keep your stuff air tight, and divvied up into moderately sized bins. A little bead of silicone caulk spread around the lid to make a seal solid really makes a difference, and you can get it in handheld tubes- no caulk gun.
Ive heard too many horror stories of art history tragedies and had a room mate in college who had experienced flea trauma. I don’t want my felting to be ruined
