Creeping with the Enemy



One of our night technicians (aka the Night Crawlers) Gil passed along these pictures to us here at Ew York City.

Those silver boxes that you see are rodent traps.  They are repeat catch traps.  They are designed to catch multiple rodents at once (maybe up to 15 or so) and prevent them from running around your restaurant.

The problem that we see here is that the traps have been moved by someone at the restaurant.  I'm going to guess it was the cleaning crew but it could have been anyone.  In any case, unless these silver boxes are kept in their proper position they will be rendered ineffective and won't catch any mice.  They are supposed to be on the floor and up against the wall.  Mice are not going to go into them if they are sitting up on objects like grease containers or if the traps are on their sides.

Help your team to help us help you.  Remind them not to move these boxes away from their proper position, or at least put them back.  If one of your team keeps moving them, pull him aside and inspect him for whiskers, a tail, and two long front teeth.  It might be that he's working for the enemy.
