The situation
• IPM Committee with cross-museum representation
• Consistent and regular trapping in collection and exhibition areas
• Development of risk management approach using risk zones
![Page 3: Dave Smith Petrology Collections Manager European KE EMu Users Conference, April 2012 What’s underfoot? KE EMu un-earths a new moth habitat](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e5e5503460f94b57180/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The problem
• No centralised database for trapping data
– Inability to query and analyse the data
• Inconsistent departmental reports
– Difficult to compare across the Museum
• Department-centric boundaries
– Individuals know situation within their area
– No strategic overview

The transformation
• NHM adopted new Modules in Dec 2010.
• Dept. IPM Committee reps. trained in April 2011.
• Legacy data from 1997 migrated by Oct 2011.
• All ‘trappers’ trained and using Trap Modules by Jan 2012.

Record structure
• Pest trapping data consists essentially of two components:
– Data which describes the physical location of the trap
– Data which records the species diversity, and number of insects found within the trap at any point in time.

The problem
• Increase in number of moths in the gallery spaces!
• Where?

So what did we do?

Conclusion
• EMu facilitated speedy reactions to a rapidly growing threat to collections on display.
– Single data repository for pest trapping data.
– Familiarity of the interface.
– Ease of data entry AND query.
– Close association with specimen/collection information.
– Inform senior management based on evidence.
– Reporting – multiple ways to dice ‘n’ slice.
– Visualisation – communication tool

Hot off the press…..
• Multiple sites
• Customise scale to facilitate comparisons
