Disclaimer: Though BEARicuda Bin™ trash cans have been rigorously tested, we cannot make with a 100% guarantee that a bear or any other animal will never penetrate any of our cans. All animals are unpredictable. All our cans have been an effective deterrent against all types of animals in which most never penetrate the can, note damage can be done to the can in which Bearicuda, Inc will not refund or replace the can. Cans maybe damaged in certain instances because this is the byproduct of having an animal trying to get into your trash. Our PAK120 is not bear resistant certified, we have tested PAK130, PAK195, PAK164 and PAK132. Also PAK120 is no longer available in brown only yellow.

Example, squirrels because of the extreme sharp teeth and after prolonged periods of time could potentially gnaw into the can where other larger animals cannot access. This is a rare event, but must be noted because no poly can on the market today is completely impenetrable. In 95% of cases you will find your can a complete deterrent for bears and all other animals.

New Jersey Success Story: Critter Can™ Bear Proof Container Program

In New Jersey, The BEAR Group has assembled and distributed thousands of our Basic Model BEARicuda Bin™ Bear Proof Containers to help combatthe growing problem of bear encounters in residential communities. The Basic BEARicuda Bin™ Critter Can Model was a key part of theprograms success to prevent unwanted bear encounters.

By not allowing the bears to get into the trash and garbage cans for food, they are less apt to stay in neighborhoods and communities looking for food. The wild bears are deterred from becoming human-habituated and garbage can conditioned. BEARicuda Inc, has teamed up with the Bear Education And Resource Group to create this affordable Bin also known as The Critter Can™.

This Can should be kept outside (preferred) all the time. Once your neighborhood bears learn they cannot get into this Bear Proof Container, they will move on, keeping their consumption of unnatural foods at a lower level. When bears consume only natural food, their reproductive rate goes down.

Our Container is nestable to help save on shipping when ordering multiple cans. Many neighborhoods or communities are getting together to order multiple BEARicuda Bin™ Critter Cans to save on pricing and more affordable shipping costs.

  • Our Basic Model Bear Proof Container is endorsed by the unbiased and reputable Bear Education And
  • Resource Group and Save New Jersey Bears.org a non for profit organization.

The BEARicuda Bin™ trash cans have been adopted by the well respected Bear Education And Resource Group with their sign of approval and testing.

Through the success of Bear Group's program and volunteers, our Basic BEARicuda Bin™ Containers have been discovered, tested and is being offered to homeowners, municipalities and other associations to help prevent bears and other animals from coming into our neighborhoods and recreation areas for left over food and trash. In addtion, BEARicuda Bins™ have been officially tested and meet the rigorous standards through the Living with Wildlife Foundation (LWWF), Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, and Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee Testing Program For Bear-Resistant Products. This Bear Proof Garbage Container container was tested on January 27, 2007 by two grizzly bears (ranging in size from 325 to 550 pounds) at the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone, Montana. The testing process is very rigorous and includes biting, clawing, rolling and crushing by the bears for a period of up to 60 minutes

Since the implementation and success of the original 30 gallon BEARicuda Bin™ Bin Basic Bear Proof Container and Critter Can, we have received many inquires from other communities with similar concerns for animals getting into their trash cans.
