Book lice feed on what?

They feed on microscopic molds, together with dried or decaying plant and animal materials. They aren't true lice, and are generally harmless, except when contaminating stored food and food packaging material. The best way to control book lice is to run a dehumidifier. If you have a poorly-constructed house, you won't be able to control them, because you'll just get reinfested. Insectivides like pyrethrins, rotenone, allethrin, chlorpyrifos or propoxur may work for spot control. In non-food storage areas, one pound naphthalene flakes or paradichlorobenzene (PDB) per 100 cubic feet will be effective. That would be about 10 pounds for a room that's 10 x 12 with an 8 foot ceiling. You're only supposed to use PDB in a well-ventilated area, because it'll make you sick, and if you have a well-ventilated area, the booklice will come back in, so this is a catch-22.
