Dear all If you use a spreadsheet such as excel, you have an option to make labels by taking the information and merging it with a word file which is set up with a label system Avery labels measurements are standard on Word and excel can merge the data directly into it. Then you always have a list which can be printed out and the labels are also useful for sticking on the blunder traps to help stop them opening (the glue is not very good). Adie

Thank you everyone for your thoughtful, and helpful, replies. I think I'm on the right track with date, room # and trap #. I have started maps with locations marked, and I will work with conservators to keep the number of traps enough to be effective without over saturation. One suggestion I was given in talking to someone here is, for institutions with many traps, type them up and print on mailing labels. That could save some time hand writing, and easy to print out later when traps get replaced.

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!
