Solar panel protection mesh forms a physical barrier far more effective than bird spikes and other bird repellents. Other bird deterrents are often ineffective and do not stop birds from roosting. They often bring diseases such as salmonella and interfere with electrical wiring on the underside of the panels.
Without bird control, mesh nesting materials often build up under solar panels as solar panels form an ideal nesting location for many bird species. Bird droppings on roofs can cause corrosion and can cause unpleasant odours. Solar Panel Bird protection is a cost-effective means of protecting your investment.
