An aeration stone for fish tank does same thing and when the water spills in your bottle or evaporates out the flies get in.

Thinking this will be for coon, fox, coyote? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

We have always made bait and lure indoors in a controlled environment. It doesn't smell very nice as one can imagine due to all the odor released from the venting buckets.

Flies can still be a problem indoors as they line up at the exterior door due to the odor seeping outdoors ever so slightly so every time you open to enter the facility in potential active fly conditions a couple get in. So you still have to be diligent with insect control. We always spray the bucket lid rims with a professional fly bait spray. Kills them in a few seconds of sponging the material.

I have posted this photo before using tire valve stems to vent and protect our bait, base and aging lure containers. I use to damage hundreds of buckets by drilling holes in the lids to vent years ago. Never again. This method does a good job and keeps your lids in good shape.

We can stack 5 buckets high enabling us to inventory 150 plus active working containers without much space loss. You must keep your materials well labeled and dated to keep track of what you are doing and when it needs to be handled in processing like aging or stopping a specific material when matured to your standards.

Got my dobins bait formula. I made two batches, one with the extra stuff and one with only the preservative. If the yotes act anything like my dog, I have a winner! We about had a battle as I was mixing it up!
