The baby will not leave our remotes alone, not only does he have to use them to turn things on and go channel surfing, but he also has to pop the backs off and take the batteries out of them. Aside from being incredibly annoying, it also quickly became dangerous when he took one halfway out and it overheated and started leaking acid, fun fun. Anyway, he peels off regular tape and we didn’t want duct tape ruining the cable company’s remote, but we found the perfect solution. Gaffer tape. It’s also black, so it blends in nicely with the rest of the remote. He hasn’t gotten to any batteries since (and boy is he mad about it too, hee hee hee).
