Customer Reviews for Garage Door Rodent Guard

We had a problem with mice eating the bottom part of the garage door stripping, just as seen in the product ads. The product arrived promptly and in good condition. The metal strips were easy to put on and so far, have stayed on tightly. It's only been a few weeks, but so far, no more mice and the strips are intact. Seems to be an inexpensive, simple but effective way to keep mice from destroying the door stripping and getting in.

I have a large outside garage with 3 overhead doors. The mice had chewed the sealer strips at the bottom of all 3 doors (both sides of each door) and were getting in. The last 2 months before installing the rodent guards I had caught at least 30 mice in traps. I installed the door guards three weeks ago and have not caught one mouse since installing the guards. Problem solved.

I had great hopes that the rodent guard would do the trick. However, my problem was installing the metal guards around the vinyl garage door seal. I could not get the guard to hold on to the seal. I used pliers and tried to close the grip but it kept falling off. I did get one to stay but am not sure how long that will last.

What a simple device and it's really effective. Well worth the small price for a big payoff.

I installed the rodent guards after spray painting them to match the clay color of the garage door weather stripping. I touched up the tape after I applied it to the guards. The installation was extremely easy. The guards look like they'll do the job well.

I found the appearance of this product once installed to be very unsatisfactory and removed it.

Bought two sets (2 garage doors). Watched instructional video twice to make sure I was following. Handy wipes were dry, tape not sticky enough, one of the metal guards has already fallen off after one week. Don't waste your money.

The product works amazingly well. We had trapped 11 mice in a week at the garage. Since we installed the Rodent Guard we have not had any mice at all. Installation was very easy and took a few minutes only. We had a problem where the mice made a crescent hole on the side wood molding that is attached to the vinyl weather seal or flap ( The bottom of the weather seal was eaten up as well ). I overcame this by using both metal guards that came with the kit ( rather than using one piece as instructed ). I installed the first metal guard to restore the bottom of the weather vinyl seal ( as instructed ) and overlapped the 2nd metal piece with it so that it would seal the hole on the side wood molding as well, and attached them together from the inside with strong duct tape. Great product. Many thanks to the developer.

Still enough gap between guard and door seal for mice to chew the seal. First night with the new seal and already seeing damage from mice. Not happy at all !!!!

Living in the woods means a lot of creatures, especially field mice, like to move in with when it begins to get cold. Even though traps are effective, I rather they not get in. Once they penetrate the garage door weather stripping looking for warmth, snakes will often follow and sometimes woodchucks think we're running a hotel. These guards fit the exact spot the mice like to chew on the weather stripping. Once they get that opening it's not long until the bottom garage door seal by the mouse hole gets ruined as the opening gets wider. I've never been disappointed with the products and I highly recommend dyopc for their products and 5-star customer service.

Not worth the money. I followed the instructions and one side came off. This product is not what I expected, its much weaker than what is advertised. I ended up replacing it with a metal corner bead from H.D. Cost me a few dollars less and works great.

We were having mice get in our garage and could see where they could come in at the bottom of our garage doors. We have installed the guards and there is no longer a gap. We are mice free.

Great Idea...I actually was thinking about a way to do this myself when I stumbled upon this on DMOPC. For me it was a great idea to just buy them this time. Keeps even bugs out!!

Excellent product! The genius of the kit, is in it's simplicity; yes you can probably get the pieces on your own, but why would you, since the kit is so inexpensive. I applaud companies that come up with products that work & are at a price range accessible to all. Thank you & I wish you continued success!

These worked very well. So simple and easy to install. I watched the YouTube video and had no problems. I was looking for a solution to chewed and missing weather seal since it's winter and I cannot change the weather seal. This is working great. Mice haven't been back in since. I may purchase again after replacing the weather seal so they don't chew at the new weather seal.

Product arrived very quickly and was exactly as advertised. The color didn't quite match the garage but no big deal. Easy to install. Worth the money. So far it's kept the mice out.

Installation was easy but mice bit the metal guard made a hole on it and continued to come in.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your review. We apologize you have had this experience. We have contacted the manufacturer and their response was that to their knowledge or experience they have not come across a metal eating mouse yet, but stranger things have happened. They would like to have a picture of the critter and the damaged Rodent guard if at all possible. If you would like to have another door sent to you as a replacement we would be more than happy to send you one for free. If you have any other questions please let us know by emailing in return or by giving us a call at 866-581-7378.

The guard is too narrow for the trim, There is still a gap in my trim next to the rodent guard. The material is very thin and difficult to crimp without denting it. After crimping, the upper edge is not flush with the trim. It's a waste of money

Terrible didn't work. They didn't stick and when your garage door comes down it hits the pieces and knocks them off your rubber membrane.

Your "Rodent Guard" was a complete failure.The design is too short. The rat or squirrel just stood up and chewed away the door seal above your guard. FOr my effort I now have replace s second door seal. Yourclever device isn't long enough. Very disappointed.

I thought I had my mouse problem solved for a while and then I noticed, somehow, they got back into the garage. After taking a survey of my perimeter I noticed they chewed holes in the weather stripping at the side of my garage doors. After installing the Garage Door Rodent Guard they haven't been in my garage for almost a month! Easy to use, easy to install, and solved my problem. Totally worth it.

This was the most easy to install product I have ever used or purchased. It took only minutes to install and it looks great too. The mice had chewed a hole in the bottom of both side of the doors . I put a rock there to keep them out and sticky traps. Now I don't have to use the rock or the traps. Thanks for an inexpensive and easy product. I bought two. A great product.
