Bird & Pest Deterrent Services

Birds — especially pigeons — are one of the biggest threats to Bay Area solar systems. They nest under panels, causing:

  • Wiring damage from nesting and chewing
  • Shading from nests built under panel edges
  • Droppings causing severe hot spots and cell damage
  • Fire risk from dry nesting material
  • Warranty voiding if damage is found during inspection

We provide critter guard and pigeon mesh installation services to seal the perimeter of your array — keeping birds out permanently without harming them.
