    Solar Panel Pigeon & Pest Protection Specialists

    Do you have birds nesting under or close to your solar panel installation? This is a common issue that can cause ongoing mess, noise, and long-term problems if it’s left untreated. At Total Solar Guard Ltd, we protect solar panel installations by installing a professional wire mesh system around the perimeter of your panels to prevent access underneath.

    Nesting birds can deposit droppings and debris on and around the panels, which can reduce overall panel output and system yield. They can also interfere with system cabling and cause blockages in guttering and roof drainage systems as nesting materials, feathers, and food debris build up over time.

    If you’re experiencing this issue, a perimeter mesh system is one of the most effective and discreet ways to prevent pigeons and other pests from accessing the space beneath the panels, protecting your roof and helping keep your solar performance unaffected.

    SOLAR PANEL PIGEON & PEST PROTECTION

    We provide practical, effective solutions to stop pigeons and pests nesting under solar panels and around roof areas. Our protection is designed to prevent access, reduce mess, and help safeguard your roofline, cabling, and guttering. Here’s an overview of the services we provide.

    Solar Panel Pigeon Proofing

    We install a wire mesh system around the perimeter of your solar panels to prevent pigeons and other nesting birds from accessing the space beneath. This helps reduce noise, mess, and repeated nesting while keeping the installation neat and secure.

    Wire Mesh Protection

    Our recommended protection is a robust, UV-resistant wire mesh system that blocks access beneath the panels while keeping airflow and drainage clear. It has minimal visual impact and can be removed for future panel maintenance if required.

    Pest Prevention Around Roof Areas

    In addition to birds, sheltered roof spaces can attract pests. We help identify access points and install suitable prevention measures around key roof areas to reduce the risk of unwanted visitors.

    Wire Mesh Protection Explained

    Wire Mesh Protection is installed around the perimeter of the solar panel installation to prevent access beneath the panels, offering protection for your roof, cabling, and solar panels.

    The system can either be fixed to the panels using retaining bolts for very robust protection, or by using special clips that are entirely non-intrusive and do not require drilling equipment or glue. The mesh is also easily removed should future maintenance be required and has minimal aesthetic impact.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    The space beneath solar panels provides warmth, shelter from weather, and protection from predators, making it an ideal nesting spot for pigeons and other birds. Once one pair nests, others often follow, which can quickly become a recurring issue.

    Yes. Bird droppings, feathers, and nesting debris can accumulate on and around the panels, reducing sunlight exposure and lowering overall system output. In some cases, birds can also interfere with cabling or cause drainage blockages that lead to further problems.

    Solar panel pigeon proofing involves installing a durable wire mesh system around the perimeter of the panel array. This blocks access to the space beneath the panels while maintaining airflow and drainage, preventing birds and pests from nesting.

    No. We use manufacturer-friendly methods such as specialist clips that attach directly to the panel frame without drilling, glue, or roof alterations. Where required, retaining bolt systems can also be used without affecting warranties when installed correctly.

    In most standard residential installations, scaffolding is not required. Access is typically gained safely using professional roofing access equipment. If scaffolding is necessary due to height or safety considerations, we will advise you in advance.

    The mesh is designed to be discreet and has minimal aesthetic impact. It sits neatly around the perimeter of the panels and blends in with the installation, maintaining the appearance of your roof.

    Yes. The system can be removed if future maintenance or panel servicing is required. It is designed to provide secure protection while still allowing access when necessary.

    Yes. If birds have already nested beneath your panels, we can safely remove nesting materials and clean the affected areas before installing the mesh protection to ensure a hygienic and effective solution.
