Hi Julie, Is there something in each room that you can use as a landmark? Ideally something that is not likely to change for a long time? For example, I name my trap locations things like “room 408 beside the fire escape door” or “main rotunda under the window”. Does that help?

Hello Everyone, I'm currently in the process of unifying all of the previously isolated trapping areas in the museum for improved integration. Does anyone have opinions about the best way to number and identify individual traps? My plan is to label them as such: Month/Year placed Room or Gallery Number - Trap # That seems straight forward, and more or less what we've been doing, but there are many rooms and some rooms have 20+ traps - some on the ground and some up on cabinets. Does it help to break large rooms up into something like A,B,C areas then the trap #? I want to do things right the first time around, so I'm trying to think ahead to all the information that might be helpful to have on a label and then in the logging worksheets. I'd love to hear/see examples of how everyone labels their traps and learn what works and what doesn't. Regards!
