Coyote Rollers

What Makes Coyotes So Dangerous?

  • Fast, cunning and known for their skills in stealth, coyotes excel at sneaking up on prey. Chances are, by the time you or your pet spot a coyote, it has already studied you and deduced its plan of attack.
  • Because coyotes characteristically travel in packs, you are more likely to encounter several at a time.
  • These packs rely on having enough space to live and hunt and are therefore quite territorial. The pack views people and pets whose residences encroach on their territory as a direct threat to their survival. Increasingly, rather than retreat, coyotes are lashing out at these perceived threats.

Are Coyote Attacks Really an Issue?

Over the last several years, coyotes have become more brazen in their attacks on humans and their beloved domestic animals. One needs only to turn on the local news to see the devastating effects a coyote attack can have on a family.

How Can I Protect My Family?

Among the most effective ways to protect your family and pets from a coyote attack is to prevent coyotes from getting into your yard in the first place. While there are various ways of deterring coyotes, the best way to keep them at bay is to have a tall, sturdy fence. That said, coyotes are powerful jumpers and can easily clear fences of several times their size. As we’ve seen increasingly in the media, an adult coyote is able to scale even a five foot-tall fence with ease.

In the past, there have been various ways of fortifying fences to guard against coyotes. From the use of lethal deterrents such as barbed wire, to more humane solutions such as greasing wall and fence surfaces, humans have repeatedly attempted to devise a convenient, hassle-free way to keep their families safe. With the introduction of coyote rollers, we’ve finally succeeded.

What is a Coyote Roller?

The coyote roller is a rolling iron bar welded to the top of your new or existing fence, which prevents coyotes from getting their footing on the structure and climbing into your yard. When the coyote tries to scale the fence, his feet inevitably hit the roll bar, which keeps him from maintaining his grip, and results in him being literally rolled off.

Do Coyote Rollers Really Work?

In a word, YES! When San Diego began experiencing the scourge of coyote attacks, coyote rollers became an instrumental tool in safeguarding the area’s families and pets. Further, the Nevada Division of Wildlife recommends coyote rollers as both a humane and effective way to keep coyotes from entering your yard.

Are Coyote Rollers an Eyesore?

We recognize that your home is your sanctuary and the aesthetic of your yard is important in creating that setting. That’s why our expertly-welded, coyote rollers are designed to seamlessly blend in with your new or existing fence, add to your security and maintain your home’s curb appeal.

If you belong to an HOA, there’s good news! Coyote rollers are increasingly being approved by HOAs who appreciate their residents taking the initiative to create safer neighborhoods.

Are There Other Benefits to Having Coyote Rollers Installed?

Thus, the simple addition of coyote rollers has the potential to raise your property value and make your home stand out in an often contentious market. What’s more, the addition of coyote rollers to your fence can help reduce visits from other unwanted pests! From stray animals and rabid raccoons to the garden-variety burglar, a high fence capped with a rolling iron bar, while not foolproof, is yet another weapon in the line of defense against your home.

What if I Move?

While coyote rollers will make any home on the Nevada market stand out to potential buyers, once you experience the difference and heightened security they provide, you may not be ready to part with your investment.
