I live in London and the foxes are built like pit bulls Mark.
That one is sitting on my shed at the end of my garden.
They will not get inside those bins. I have had them try numerous times. Like daily, for a decade. They will have a nibble (handles etc), but they can't get in. Because of my work, it attracts foxes and mice big time. The foxes want the fish meal hook baits, the mice want the S2. Really, really bad. There is stuff that goes into the hook baits that attracts them on a grand scale.
I will create a thread when I get a chance, share how I have managed to completely stop both. It will help anyone who has ever had problems with mice chewing up their gear in a garage or a shed. Totally stop the little mofos, forever.

Never thought i'd be interested in a pest control type thread but as i store more bait in my shed now and not always in the most vigilant way, i'd be interested to read some tips on it

If it helps anyone who has a problem with foxes ripping their black plastic rubbish sacks open, I spray mine with a 50/50 mix of cheap pine Disinfectant and water put in an old trigger type spray bottle. Give them a liberal spray when you put them out and it usually keepe the little b##gers at bay.

I'll make a thread at some point this morning.
After being plagued by foxes, and especially mice (both field & house varieties) for a decade, at two different addresses.... This method has completely stopped both. No sign of a mouse whatsoever since the day this started.
It's been nothing short of amazing for me.

So, the bins have a very good seal.
I've got airtight drums with double lids. These are airtight as well but I store all in a dark and cool space like a garage.
But it seems you've have the proof of the pudding to show your manner of storing is sufficient. Indeed, it al starts with a good airtight drum...
