This spot, and the holes for waterbottles in the deeper totes are the only points I have had chewing issues. I just screw the flashing to the spot with some short screws and it's fixed. Havent had any issues with either ASFs or regular rats chewing through the aluminum yet. Onlt downside to this is having the screw points sticking out where they can poke you. Can try to post a pic or two later if needed
We live in Canada. I could not for the life of me find any of these. They're also known as cement mixing tubs.

I just prefer aquariums for these guys. I've had one too many escapes.
