Yankee Ingenuity

What you are looking at here are a couple silver box mouse traps that have glue boards inside.

But what are those dark green squares or blobs on top of the glue boards?

Seaweed.

Yes, the proprietors of the restaurant, who happen to be Japanese, have baited the trap with seaweed.

You have to admire their efforts to attract the mice into the traps.

I am not sure that mice are generally eaters of seaweed, but I did overhear some rats ordering the miso soup the last time I had sushi.

Ew York City will come around the corner again tomorrow.
