Abstract
A protective housing for an electronic article surveillance (EAS) tag is adhered directly to an article with an adhesive layer that is difficult to remove. The housing comprises a cavity defined by a base and rectilinear side walls, with the EAS tag secured against the base. The dimension of the side walls together with the adhesive layer is significantly greater than the thickness of the EAS tag, so that there is a substantial portion of the cavity between the EAS tag and the article to which the housing is attached.
