Ridge-Guard® is the ultimate roof ridge protection system that helps to prevent animal entry at the roof ridge. With the advent of ridge vents to protect shingles from overheating in the summer, and excess moisture build-up in the attic in the winter due to heat loss, came the extra issues associated with a large vent opening across the entire ridge of the home.
Standard plastic ridge-venting, as well as most other types of roof ridge vents, can be made secure from pests by the application of Ridge-Guard®.
RIDGE-GUARD® is the ultimate ridge vent protection and is patented by the US Patent and Trademark office. Installing RIDGE-GUARD® on your roof ridge vent locks the vent down securely, which will prevent bats from crawling under the plastic or fiber roof ridge vent, as well as keep squirrels, mice, or rats from chewing their way into the attic.
Another benefit of installing RIDGE-GUARD® on the ridge vent of your home is the added protection against high wind damage to ridge caps. Many times, a hurricane or storm with high winds may cause ridge cap shingles to be ripped off the home in a “domino effect”. This, unfortunately, leaves the ridge vent opening and attic vulnerable to rain and water damage. RIDGE-GUARD® has proven to secure the edges of the ridge cap, keeping them from lifting in high wind conditions, and keeping excess water out of the home.
