Solar Panel Bird Proofing in Kent

The gap under a solar array is exactly what a pigeon is looking for. Nesting there blocks airflow, fouls the roof and causes real damage.

Stop pigeons nesting under your panels

The gap between a solar array and the tiles is sheltered, warm and dry, which is almost exactly what a pigeon is looking for.

Nesting there causes three problems at once. It blocks the airflow the panels need for cooling, which reduces output. It fouls the roof and the wall below. And the nesting material washes down and blocks the gutters, which then overflow against the wall.

The signs are persistent noise from the roof in spring, droppings down the tiles, and debris in the gutter directly under the array. Mesh clipped to the panel frame around the perimeter stops it. Fitted properly it does not shade the cells, does not restrict airflow and does not affect the panel warranty.

Your Common Solar Panel Bird Proofing Questions Answered

No. Correctly fitted mesh clips to the panel frame around the perimeter and leaves the airflow under the array intact, which is what the panels need for cooling. It does not shade the cells and it does not affect the warranty when fitted properly.

Persistent noise from the roof in spring, droppings down the tiles and on the wall below, and debris in the gutters directly under the array. Left alone the nesting material blocks airflow, holds moisture against the tiles and blocks the rainwater goods.
