Someone became a millionaire off this system based off someone's misapplication of a bridge vent if you put it on right you don't have to worry about no squirrels getting in your ridge
While poor roof installation isn't impossible, it is more often due to animals causing damage. Attic ventilation is often one of the easiest targets. They'll see the holes in plastic vents and such as a weakness and claw, tear, or chew their way through to warmth or shelter.
I had a ridge vent installed with new shingles after a large hail storm. Recently I hear rodent activity on the roof and in the attic. So far, trapped 5 rats. I have placed wire mesh over the plumbing vents and found several spots where the rodents chewed into the plastic of the ridge vent . My next process will be to shove copper mesh into the gaps and place 1/4 inch X 1/4 inch galvanized wire barrier between the vents and roofing 3 tab shingles . Maybe I will get some sleep once I succeed in stopping the intrusions.
You portray yourself as someone that knows what they're talking about but really you don't know Jack schitt of what you're talking about you don't know anything about roofing you don't have a license you don't know s*** about roofing man shut the f******
How do these fasteners not cause leaks later on? I am a handyman in CO and because of the large temp differentials from night to day, shade to sun, fasteners can easily work themselves out of wood.
If you are concerned about leakage I would recommend Solar Seal be used in the holes and on the screw threads. Drive the screw in, back it out, apply sealant to threads and drive screw back in. Then put a dab over all the screw heads for added assurance.
Great . going to try ride-guard out. hope it works , better than replacing all ridge vent.

James, the product is an expanded galvannealed steal that is formed and then powder coated.

use 1/2" hardware cloth to cover ridge opening before installing the roof vent.
Interesting.
What screws should be used with ridge guard?
The product comes with it's own fasteners.

@@billcoleman2227 always cover up with roof tar after screwing into the roof
@@joshstout8933 roof tar shouldn’t be exposed to the sun
