Dear all We use a tape which contains a plastic fibre for extra strength It makes it more difficult to cut but is very strong and the fibre makes it easy to remove without it tearing There are several on the market so I can't specifically recommend one Adie

Hi Julie, We rely on red plastic “Tuck Tape”. It’s expensive but never fails as the plain packing or masking tape will.

I've used different varieties of duct tape and carton-sealing 'packing' tape and so far I have not experienced any obvious failing. However, reading more into tape recommended temperatures maybe I'm playing with fire? (playing with ice???) It seems like most of the tape I've been using is not recommended for temperatures below -10C. The museum pests website says to use tape that will not fail in low temperatures. Have others experienced regular packing tape failing? Any recommendations? I see there are tapes made for use in sub freezing temperatures, does anyone use those? Thanks, All!
