Strong Strap vs. Raccoons

1. Invest in a High-Quality Bin

   Strong plans start with strong cans. Look into a high-quality trash bin if you don’t already own one. We recommend a trash can with a sturdy base and a lid that is hard to bend.

2. Prevent Can from Falling Over

   When trash cans fall over, pests gain leverage. For raccoons, we recommend storing your can on level ground and in-between other cans, up against a wall, or in a corner. Find a spot where the can is not likely to fall over.

3. Add a Strong Strap

   It’s simple… crank the lid shut and prevent access by raccoons. The Strong Strap is made for every woman, every man, and every can – universal, no tools required to install, and engineered for extreme-durability.

4. Keep Can Clean

   Raccoons love the scent of food waste, make your cans less tempting by keeping them clean. Plus, as an added layer of protection, we recommend mint scented trash bags to complement the Strong Strap.
