THE COYOTE ROLLER
Roll Guard Inc., makers of the Coyote Roller system, is a team of dedicated animal lovers whose pledge is to keep your pets safe at home. Keeping your family pets in your yard, or keeping wild roaming predators out, the Coyote Roller does the job.
The Coyote Roller is a humane, non-lethal, animal protection and deterrent device that requires no power source. It’s the best product on the market, period.
Other companies claim to have the best product, we here at Roll Guard Inc. beg to differ.
In our opinion, a product that requires no power source is much better than one that needs a continuous electrical supply to operate.
We also feel that giving your family pet a jolt of electricity or risking injury from barbed wire is certainly not the answer.
Why we think our product is your best choice:
. Requires no power to operate.
. Attaches to your existing fence.
. Maintenance free.
. Non-lethal.
. Can be powder coated to match your color needs.
Install the Coyote Roller then walk away and let it work for you.
Product Materials:
T 52 extruded aluminum, urethane moisture proof end caps, stainless steel roll pins, and
10 gauge aluminum brackets. Requires no maintenance.
Thank you for choosing ROLL GUARD INC., and the COYOTE ROLLER system, the best protection you can give your pet. The rollers come in four foot sections and every thing needed to install comes with it ,they sell for $ 28.00 each.
It is nice that this perfunctory action took place with the executive board however, what the general public doesn’t seem to understand is that, no permission was needed. This government agency, having deemed these coyotes an absolute threat to human safety can move forward and irradicate without any explicit consent from the HOA or http://www.meritpm.com/. Merit is absolutely obstructionary in their lack of cooperation and nobody in this HOA can seem to understand this. So, although they moved forward with showing some action…it was worthless. These coyotes were going to be trapped regardless. Here is the bigger challenge…getting some formal notice to the public thru the HOA, which would include signage and written notice other than their inadequate website. People, having adequate information can always make appropriate decisions and they were never given notice of this problem and have never been informed of this problem and to this day, they are still NOT BEING NOTIFIED adequately of this threat. And now, a few more of my neighbor’s animals have been taken. This was completely uncalled for. It is only a matter of time, mark my words…a child will be harmed because of the lack of action by http://www.meritpm.com/ and this HOA. If I were researching this area to live…I would not live here.
Also if People leave out food, Or thier pets, they will just come back later, so no amount of trapping will get rid of them.
This is a joke! We moved into the Coyotes’ area not vice versa. they were here first. keep your animal indoors (on a leash when walking).
No joke, Mr. Reid.
This animals are wild and have threatened us with their unusual and aggressive behavior. Sure, they were here first, but they have the hills out east to roam without anybody messing with them.
@S.Reid: Reid is right… keep your pets indoors or on a leash. or in a secured gated backyard.
No matter how much trapping is done the coyotes will still be there. you will not get them gone. They were there before you got there and trhey will be there when your gone
The coyotes needed to be removed. You have a governmant agency thta validated this through an extensive investigation. It does not matter if the coyotes were here first, this is the dumbest answer I have heard!!!!! so what you are saying is that if we get mountain lions roaming are neighborhoods we are to leave them alone? Give me a breaqk!!!! the coyotes are dangerous and it is just a matter of time before something bad happens, Im glad they took some of themout!!!!!!
I’ve been mtn biking in the canyons and I haven’t seen a coyote in a while, but I did notice that there are so many rabbits now.
@Freddy h:
I’m also noticing a bunch of rabbits around the Eastlake Trails area? I wonder if mankind just messed with the natural ecosystem again when we decided to eradicate and trap the coyotes..?
@ Mark: That’s exactly what happened. Next to an increased rabbit population, I’ve also noticed an increase in rodents like mice and rats. I’ve been in 3 neighborhoods of the Eastlake area since ’95, and I never saw a coyote on our street. When the coyotes were abundant just over a year ago, I would see them in the canyons all the time while riding my mtn bike and they would always run the other way. I’m not saying that the coyotes never came into the neighborhoods, but I believe we have to do our part of making sure our properties are not attracting certain wild life. People around the country live in areas with a high population of bears, and the communities learn to keep their pet food, bird feed, and trash secured, and small pets and children safe. East Chula Vista became one of the fastest growing cities in the country, while pushing deeper into the canyons and hills in the area. Only a small percentage knew how to keep their properties wildlife proof, and so the coyotes started to enter the neighborhoods. What I am wondering is were the coyotes are being sent, for once they have no fear of searching for food in our neighborhoods, by sending them elsewhere, we are sending others our wildlife problem.
