Solar Panel Protection Information

A number of animals in New York and New Jersey are frequent invaders at homes and businesses. The gap between solar panels and a roof offers just one more place for them to get into. The ease of squeezing beneath an unprotected solar panel enables almost any pest that is small enough to build a nest.

Those that often nest under solar panels in our local area include:

  • Birds – In NY and NJ, common pest bird species include pigeons, house sparrows, and starlings. All of these birds are small enough to get under solar panels and are already frequent nuisances around properties.
  • Squirrels – Squirrels are able climbers, making it easy for them to get onto your roof. They also spend time gnawing through materials and can chew through the wiring behind your panels.
  • Mice – Mice, like squirrels, will also chew through wires. They breed quickly and nesting on your roof can provide them easy access to the inside of your home through small openings, potentially leading to a whole-house infestation.

You can also find raccoons, rats, and more, all of which can lead to damage to your panels. Birds are the primary nuisance wildlife to nest under solar panels and to land on and around them.

Solar Panel Protection Services

In order to get the most out of your investment in solar at your home or business, you need to ensure your panels are safe from natural dangers like wildlife. Our solar panel proofing works for residential solar panels and commercial rooftop solar panels.

How Solar Panel Guardian Prevents Solar Panel Animal Damage

We place a special mesh around the perimeter of the solar panels and fasten it to both the roof and the panels with metal clips. This creates a secure physical barrier that can help stop animals from considering making their nest there.

We use high-quality metal or heavy-duty plastic mesh that is weather resistant.

Critter guards have the added benefit of also keeping out leaves, twigs, and other items that could become trapped beneath your solar panels. Like animals, these can cause cosmetic and technical damages. Mesh guards can help prevent these damages and possibly reduce the need for regular cleaning.

We can also keep birds away from roofs and solar panels by installing bird spikes. Consisting of stainless steel spikes in variable measurements, bird spikes make it impossible for a bird to land on a surface. We install the spikes around the solar array’s framing to prevent birds from landing on, and potentially scratching, the panels.

Types of Damage to Your Solar Panels

Solar Panel Bird Protection

Birds can scratch solar panels with their sharp claws. If they make a nest around your solar panel, it can also lead to acid dropping on the solar panels and debris around the solar panels. Contact us today if you are having bird problems.

Solar Panel Squirrel Protection

Squirrels start to bring in debris such as leaves and twigs with them. Squirrels also chew on the wiring under the solar panels. This can lead to solar panel damage as well as a fire hazard from the debris and exposed wiring.

Solar Panel Enviromental Protection

Uncontrollable weather events such as heavy winds and rainstorms can leave trash and debris on your solar panels. This can possibly lower the absorabtion rate of the solar cells, as well as damage the solar cell glass protection.
