The diffuse interstellar bands are not due to solid state species. However, under the explicit assumption that DIB carriers survive the transfer from translucent to dark clouds, it is expected that for the low temperatures in the dense interstellar medium also DIB carriers accrete onto dust grains. Like all other molecules, apart from molecular hydrogen, they will get embedded in an ice matrix that largely consists of amorphous solid water. This offers - in principle - a tool to search for DIBs in complete different environments, both in space (i.e., towards embedded young stellar objects) and in the laboratory, namely in the solid state simulating interstellar ice analogues. Currently experiments are ongoing in the Sackler Laboratory for Astrophysics at Leiden Observatory to record optical ice spectra of potential DIB carriers. For this a new experimental approach has been developed. Its performance and potential are discussed.
