Description from the creator

Successfully tested on Black Bears in my Florida community. Retrofit your Rehrig Pacific Huskylite, and many other brands of garbage can or trash can to resist animals and wildlife. Including Bear, Raccoon, Dogs, Coyote etc. May not be Bear Proof but there will be additional options for persistent bears. Watch for updates. Help keep wildlife wild! A fed bear is a dead bear! Thank you for caring and sharing. Almost 100 bears had to be put down by FWC last year mostly because they were attracted to peoples garbage. We can do better.
Parts list: Drill and 3/16 drill bit, 4 #10 3/4 pan head bolts and hex lock nuts, 8 #10 washers, 2 4 inch and 10 inch nylon webbing strips, 2 PS22 1 inch Buckles(Plastic-buckles.com)300 pound rated, 3/8 wrench, Awl or punch.
To save you time and trouble you can order a Retrofit Kit with all the hardware put together and ready to be installed in 10 minutes with only an Awl, screwdriver, and wrench. Please send me a picture of the top front of your trash can and watch the video for instruction.
Contact me and I will email you pay pal account for deposit of your $15 including postage paid. Part of the proceeds will benefit bears in Florida.
