I recently discovered that some of my adult rats are chewing through the bottoms of my freedom breeder tubs. I've performed a makeshift repair with some plastic I obtained from a modified storage tub that I use for grow-outs. Only problem is that I know they can chew through this plastic too because they are already attempting to chew there way out of the grow out tub as well. Any thoughts on how to stop the chewing? Is there a better material I can use in my tubs so they don't chew through them? Or are there better tubs out there than what I have?

Thanks,
Anthony
