Is it possible to put modules in the deepfreezer without damaging them?

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>hi guys. </p> <p>i have been drunkenly sleeping somewhere and the person had bedbugs. later i had the bedbugs in my sleepingbag.</p> <p>fortunatly i left the sleeping bag in my car and did not bring it into my home. </p> <p>but i used it to cover my 9u rack overnight in the car. so now i am afraid becourse there are 1000s of places the bedbugs could hide in the rack. i am almost sure there are none. but i would love to be safe. </p> <p>so the easiest solution would be to just put the rack in the deepfreezer at -20 degree celcius for 3 days. </p> <p>but i am afraid i might damage the modules or psu, which would be real bad, emotionally and financially. </p> <p>is it possible to cause some damage to the modules with freezing them?</p> <p>the rack is in a plastic bag now, so moisture would only come from the air inside the bag, which still is enough. so i would have to wait until its fully dry and warm before turning it on afterwards. </p> <p>and is this also possible for the digitone?</p> <p>edit: thanks for all the replies. ok i wont freeze it. i dont want to take any risk. </p> <p>i will take it all apart. also screw my diy wood case apart and have a close look at everything. i might also get an air pressure can from the hardwarestore.</p> <p>and if i have any doubt i will think about heating it to 55° celcius for a few hours.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/startfish245"> /u/startfish245 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/p9xm46/is_it_possible_to_put_modules_in_the_deepfreezer/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/p9xm46/is_it_possible_to_put_modules_in_the_deepfreezer/">[comments]</a></span>
