(Half) homemade pet-proof ant traps from "not new" tins.

The ant traps from the stores can easily be chewed up by my dog (it seems like they mix the poison with peanutbutter bait, so he would definitely be interested. So, I poke two holes in a tin, place the ant trap inside and and tape it shut with heavy duty packing tape (heck, I have a hard time getting into them each year to swap out the poison). I put these puppies out as soon as it gets warm and I can go through the year with never seeing more than two ants in the house. (Wish the same could be said for stink bugs, which have invaded us the past couple years.)
