Now that we are coming into early spring, it’s time to think about bird proofing solar panels, ensuring their efficiency and maintenance is tip top for the coming year.
Birds will naturally try to nest underneath your solar panels, especially in early spring. Solar Panels are warm, protected from the elements and provide the perfect, sheltered space for pigeons and other nesting birds.
Nesting Birds Nuisance
Unfortunately, nesting birds can cause a real issue in the long and short term. As our previous blog reveals, birds can be a real nuisance and hard to get rid of. They are noisy – especially as dawn breaks! They can potentially cause the circuits to break as they move around and their foul can be corrosive to the panels.
Once birds have nested underneath your panels, they’ll start to poo on top of them, which naturally reduces the quantity of light that can get through. And once this corrosive foul is on the panels, it cannot be removed by rain alone.
Then you have the other vermin to contend with – the birds’ nesting can be attractive to other pests such as rodents and mites. You do not want this on your roof, in your attic or next to your bedroom window.
The Cost of Nesting Birds
In some cases, the damage from nesting birds under solar panels can be very expensive. In order to protect your solar panels from pigeons and avoid these issues, it’s important to get your solar panels bird-proofed.
