I agree, Ross. I used little pieces of No-pest strip many years ago in aquariums with screen tops, but I am thinking that a plastic tub with much less cross-ventilation wouldn't be a very good idea at all. I think the vapors would tend to concentrate much more than they would otherwise would. Also, as you said, snakes can very easily and effortlessly go for a day or so with the waterbowl taken out. That is very smart practice with the strips (trade name Vapona).

The way you described is very effective and safe when done exactly the way you mentioned.
