Abstract

This invention relates to rodent bait stations and more specifically to the use of an improved method of closure that will insure ease of acess by authorized personnel but will prevent the unit from being readily opened by those unfamiliar with its operation. The invention utilizes a system of independent flexible tabs, limited by restricting plates, to form an integrated structure of base and top and to seal the unit securely together.
