no lids for you!
Well i use the lids and here is why ! I have had snakes move the tubs on the rack i had with no lids. Lets just say i came home and Grrr the tub was moved and the snake was gone thank god the snake was only gone for about an hour . So at that point i made all my racks with lids - And yes its only about 30sec longer to clean them up
