Bird Proofing Solar Panels

High-quality solar panel bird proofing

Pigeons nesting underneath solar panels can pose a challenging problem due to their inconspicuous presence. Being small in size and blending with their surroundings, they often go unnoticed. Their ability to effortlessly maneuver beneath the solar panels adds to the difficulty of detection.

Homeowners share a special connection with their homes, and at Sydney Pest Crew, we recognise this bond. None of us wants to witness our property being compromised by pigeons nesting under solar panels, which is why it becomes essential to seek professional Sydney Solar Panel Bird Proofing services to address this issue effectively.

Solar panel bird control Sydney

Bird proofing solar panels is crucial, especially as many Australian homeowners and businesses have recently installed solar panels on their roofs. However, birds can negatively impact this investment.

Wed designed our kit to prevent pest birds such as pigeons, Indian Minor birds, and starlings from accessing the area beneath solar arrays, preventing nesting and the resulting mess, damage, and costly repairs. It aims to protect wiring systems, solar panels, and roofs. It's important to avoid damaging or drilling into the solar panels during installation.

Why bird proofing is essential for the longevity of your solar panels and well-being

  1. Protecting your wiring integrity: Nesting birds can cause significant damage to the wiring beneath your solar panels. Bird related damage may not be covered under your warranty and this can potentially lead to out of pocket expenses – perhaps even a complete reinstallation.
  2. Property Damage: Bird droppings are corrosive and can irreversibly damage both your solar panels and surrounds. By taking steps to bird proof your home and solar panels, you can prevent costly repairs and maintain the integrity of your property.
  1. Noise Pollution: Nesting pigeons can create disruptive noise under, and around, your solar panels. Addressing a bird infestation can eliminate this source of noise pollution and lead to a more peaceful environment.
  2. Disease Prevention: Bird infestations can contribute to the spread of harmful diseases (Cryptococcus, Staphylococcus, Histoplasmosis etc) and bird mites/lice – especially in residential areas. By bird proofing your solar panels, you can help the proliferation of these diseases and safeguard your home and community.
  3. Fire Hazards: Birds building nests under your solar panels pose a serious fire hazard. Taking preventative measures to discourage nesting will significantly help ensure the safety of your property.

At Sydney Pest Crew, we provide you with a safe, reliable solution that offers peace of mind. Our bird proofing system ensures the longevity of your solar investment and safeguards your home (and health) from nesting birds and the damage and diseases that come along with them, mitigating any potential risks.

How to check birds nesting under solar panel?

How can you determine if you need to enlist a specialist for bird-proofing your solar panels? The following indicators can help identify bird activity under your panels.


Bird droppings
Nesting activity
Chirping sounds
Claw marks and scratches
Feathers everywhere

Why choose our solar panel bird kit?

These kits include a 30-meter roll of galvanized UV PVC coated mesh that attaches to the outer edge of the solar panels using specially designed fasteners. These fasteners clip onto the underside of the panel framework, eliminating the need to drill into the panels, which could void the warranty.

Once the mesh kit is installed, it effectively blocks the entryway to the narrow space, preventing rodents, possums, and birds from causing damage and reducing cleaning and maintenance costs while maintaining the panels' efficiency and performance.


Frequently asked questions about solar panel bird kit:

We carry out our work with pride and confidence. Sydney Pest Crew has numerous years of experience and the professionalism to provide you with a quality service, every time. How did pantry moths get into my home?

Can birds damage solar panels?

Yes, birds can damage your solar panels. Bird droppings, known for their corrosive nature, have the ability to erode the wiring and surface of your solar panels. Additionally, birds may cause scratches on the panel's surface, which can diminish its efficiency in generating electricity.

Why do birds live under my solar panels?

Birds are naturally drawn to seek shelter and protection from the elements, making the space underneath your solar panels an ideal spot for them to build their nests. However, this situation presents a challenge as birds tend to leave behind a considerable amount of droppings and nesting materials in that area.

There was a possum carcass on the roof out the front of our house which was probably there for at least 3 days before we located where the smell was coming from. We had it professionally removed, including sprayed after removal to manage the flies which started to colonise and produce lots of eggs and maggots which spread in the vicinity. The service cost $270 + card transaction fee of about $4.50 (not a credit card).

I was able to get in contact with the business easily, and schedule the removal early the next day and the receptionist provided good customer service.
The systems they have in place to communicate the arrival time was helpful and also included a tracking link closer to the technicians ETA.
The technician himself was friendly & professional, arriving on time and communicating well— happy with his service.

I would recommend the business and use them again if I needed.

(Edit: I appreciate the business’ sincere and professional response to my review so I’ve removed parts of my feedback that weren’t completely accurate or helpful after carefully reading the booking confirmation email.)
Response from the owner:Hi Esther, Thank you for your positive comments and feedback. Just regarding the negative feedback, i would just like to clarify for yourself and any future potential clients that may read your review that we definitely don't have any hidden fees. Unfortunately, with any card transaction, there is going to be a fee which doesn't go to us and we actually we pay further fees on the backend to allow clients to use cards as a payment method and more. As much as we would love to not have any card fees for anyone, unfortunately it isn't the case and the standard for many businesses. Nonetheless, we did provide other payment methods as options that do not incur fees which we relay prior to service and in writing. We also do indicate very clearly on all booking confirmations and sms that there are fees for card transactions and the % if you would like to have another read. It is not in our interest or policy to hide these fees from you, definitely not. We are very transparent with it all. The price of the actual service was also underquoted by office initially but we kept the same quoted cost that was sent to you as it was our error and no urgent call out fees were charged either, just for some clarity. Regarding the spray, the technician took it upon himself, with director approval when on site, to apply a pesticide in attempt to assist and settle any fly activity post removal of dead possum. We did not charge you for this either, it was waived. As you mentioned, he did state due to the open location of the section ontop of a roof that it may not last very long but can assist and worth a try especially at no cost to you. Regarding cleaning, unfortunately roof cleaning is outside our scope of works and this was relayed at time of booking that we can only remove a dead rodent or possum and make all attempts to remove what is possible. Given the location also and safety restrictions, technician did make a great effort to get to it and remove it considering, but did relay also during the service a roof clean is recommend to assist. I hope the above helps and provides more clarity. Nonetheless, thank you for the feedback and trusting in us and choosing to recommend us again in future, we look forward to servicing your property again. Please feel free to contact office if you wish to discuss further or require any additional assistance.
I had Joshua come out to my place and greet me very professionally. Also very kindly and made me feel like i definitely made the right choice by having pest crew come out to take care of the cockroaches and spiders that were making me me and my wife uncomfortable to go out into our backyard at night. He has done such an amazing job and we can now get back to living and enjoying our backyard with friends and family. Definitely recommend them to anyone out there that need pest control done in their home.
