Solar Panel Bird Proofing For Homes Across Essex
Solar panels are a popular choice for homes and businesses across Essex that are looking to embrace renewable energy. While solar panels might be a great choice for your property, you need to make sure that you protect them from feral pigeons and other pest birds. Birds, particularly pigeons, like to build nests under solar panels as they provide great shelter and a safe space for them to raise their young.
Unfortunately, having birds nesting under your solar panels can cause various issues. Debris, such as nesting materials, bird droppings and even dead pigeons that get stuck under your panels, can cause a health hazard and lead to damage to your expensive solar technology. They can make the panels less efficient and effective at producing solar energy.

Lasting Solar Panel Pigeon Protection For The Best Possible Value

Their droppings contain nasty pathogens and need to be cleaned using a professional service to avoid spreading bacteria into the air.
