A burial vault system and burial vault kit arrangement include a first pair of lateral sides; a second pair of lateral sides; a base having a length and a width configured to releasably receive the first pair of lateral sides at opposing ends of the length and configured to releasably receive the second pair of lateral sides at opposing ends of the width; the second pair of lateral sides each defining an inner surface, the inner surface defining at least one channel extending partially along respective heights of the lateral sides; and at least one adjustable crossbar configured received within the channel to span to brace the second pair of lateral sides to resist compression and support a casket each crossbar including at least one end cap adjustably received on an end to allow a length adjustment. A method of assembly is also disclosed. A kit assembly of the burial vault is presented.

An interment system, includes: (a) at least one desiccation vessel for storing remains of a decedent who has not been cremated; (b) a plurality of memorial suites configured to house the at least one desiccation vessel, each of which includes a storage area for the at least one desiccation vessel, a living area, a vertically-oriented tribute wall separating the storage area from the living area, and an HVAC unit, which is configured to adjust at least one of a temperature, a pressure and a humidity within the at least one desiccation vessel to adjust a rate of desiccation; (c) a processor configured to securely store and share decedent data. The at least one desiccation vessel is sufficiently light, durable, and air-tight such that the at least one desiccation vessel with the decedent contained therein can be easily relocated without the need for special vehicles or trained personnel.

Systems and methods for minimizing phorid fly infestation in cemetery mausoleum buildings are provided. An insecticide can be applied to electrostatically charged screens, which can be shaped to fit various openings in mausoleum buildings, including openings comprised by windows, crypt vents, roof vents, and floor drains. Standalone units can also be installed having insecticide applied electrostatically charged screens. The screens can be placed to interrupt the phorid fly mating and egg-laying process to limit or prevent phorid fly infestation in mausoleum buildings.
