Abstract
The present invention relates to a device for securing a lid to a container, such as a trash can. This prevents wildlife, such as raccoons, from accessing the contents. The device includes a cord that passes through a hole in the lid. A stopper larger than the hole is attached to the cord and is located inside the lid. The cord is removably connected to a cleat attached to a side wall of the container to secure the lid to the side wall.
