Solar panel pigeon proofing Sussex

Solar panel pigeon proofing for domestic and commercial properties in East and West Sussex

Pigeons nesting under solar panels can lead to significant issues for property owners.

The accumulation of bird waste and persistent noise from large pigeon populations can create unhygienic and nuisance conditions around affected properties.

The issue often begins with a small number of pigeons taking up residence, but can rapidly escalate into a full-blown infestation.

Solar panel installations provide an attractive habitat for pigeons, offering protection from predators as well as warmth and shelter – making them an ideal nesting location for these prolific birds.

Without proactive management, pigeon populations can grow quickly under solar arrays, leading to the undesirable consequences of excessive waste, noise, and potential damage to the panels themselves.

Proper prevention and mitigation strategies are crucial for property owners seeking to maintain a clean, quiet, and well-functioning solar energy system.

DIY or professional installations?

 We have seen many attempts at DIY jobs to evict pigeons from under solar panels.

Invariably these do not work. Pigeons have all day to try and figure out how to bypass these.

Likewise, there are some inferior products on the market.

We do not use cheap chicken wire, we do not drill into solar panels or use products that require using glue/mastic or adhesive backing.

Drilling into panels can void your warranty as can using glues or mastic to fix flimsy plastic guards to your panels.

Your roof suffers extreme heat and cold which will break down any mastic stuck to the panels over time.
