Solar Panel Bird Protection & Pigeon Proofing
Protect your solar investment from bird damage and nesting. Our professional mesh installation prevents pigeons, seagulls, and other birds from nesting under your panels while maintaining warranty coverage and system efficiency.
Why Bird Protection Matters
Birds nesting under solar panels cause expensive damage and safety hazards
Wiring Damage
Birds chew through DC cables causing system failures and potential fire hazards.
Droppings & Mess
Bird waste reduces panel efficiency by 20-30% and creates unsightly roof staining.
Fire Risk
Dry nesting materials near hot panels and damaged wiring significantly increase fire risk.
Costly Repairs
Wiring repairs and panel replacement from bird damage often cost £500-£2000.

Bird Protection FAQs
Why do birds nest under solar panels?
The gap between panels and roof creates a warm, sheltered space perfect for nesting. Pigeons and seagulls are particularly attracted to solar panels, causing damage to wiring, leaving droppings that reduce efficiency, and creating fire risks.
Will bird protection void my solar panel warranty?
No. Our bird protection mesh is installed without drilling into panels or frames, preserving all manufacturer warranties. We use approved clip systems that won't damage your solar installation.
How long does bird proofing installation take?
Most residential solar panel bird proofing installations take 2-4 hours depending on system size and roof access. We complete the job in a single visit with minimal disruption.
Is the bird mesh visible from the ground?
Our black mesh is designed to be discreet and blends with solar panel frames. From ground level, it's barely noticeable while providing complete protection against birds nesting underneath.
