The installation here was in a much larger room so the number of medicine cabinets was increased to 24 with an additional three closed cabinets behind the desks. The number of desks was also increased to three. The apothecary bottles were placed in the same order as in the New York show. Although the insect-o-cuter was still supsended from the ceiling it hung down into a glass cube with a steel frame. This cube contained five rats, four metal dishes and wood shavings.
Hirst introduced the insect-o-cuter into the case because he wanted it to act as a vermin eradicator.
