Even if you keep your violin case clean, if you ever find unexplained broken hairs, this video is for you.
Note: Images in the thumbnail have been purposely enlarged to "increase the TERROR" and put the danger of bow mites in perspective. It can happen to anyone, and one chewed on hair is TOO MANY! Don't wait until you have to re-hair your violin, viola or cello bow.
Special Note: Even though spraying the paper towels has worked wonderfully over the years, I have been informed by Raid that depending upon the state and type of beetles, you need to spray the inside of the case itself for "direct contact" as well as fumigating, which I have done in the past, and now, will be doing so in the future once again. But always be careful about staining fine fabrics.
