Do you know who Red Green is? Anyway, the people over at Lifehacker seem to have come up with an ingenious way to ensure that your remote controls never get lost again. Here’s the short and curly’s of the Lifehacker Remote Control Duct Tape Tail Mod:

You’ll want to keep the tail about 18” long, so measure out about 40” of duct tape. Attach the first end to the bottom of your remote, below the lowest button. Carefully loop the duct tape in half, folding it carefully as you attach it to itself. There should be an inch or two left at the top after folding to complete the attachment to the remote. If space permits, add an additional “belt” of tape where the tail meets the remote.

The ultra-sticky, bright red Tuck Tape would also do the trick.
