I'm moving Down Under and I've been warned the relevant bureau might want to spray anything containing wood with pesticides.
I'm shipping some nice high end outboard, mounted in custom wood cabinets, plus 3 drum kits and a very rare vintage modular synthesizer in a wood cabinet.
Any ideas if the pesticide is a very fine spray, or should I be worried about damage to old electronic circuits and chips?
It would be a mega hassle to remove all my esoteric electonics from every single cabinet (power supplies and xlr's wired in etc).
Any of you Aussie Gearslutz been through this before?
