Solar Panel Animal Damage
Solar panels are constructed of several delicate components, including the panels themselves, the wiring, and inverters that carry power to the home’s or building’s electrical grid. They are designed to withstand weather, but not the damage that comes from animal invaders. Damage to any of these components threatens the efficiency of the solar array, or can result in it not working at all.
Animal activity near or beneath your solar panels puts the components at risk, yet any deterioration they cause to the panels is generally not covered under the warranty. This damage will most often show as:
Animals that chew or bump against wiring and electrical components can cause wires to become disconnected, weakened, or severed. This reduces the efficiency of the system and might require wire or panel replacement.
While the front of solar panels are often highly reinforced, the backs tend to be more sensitive to damage. Animals beneath the panels can scratch them, necessitating replacing a panel in severe cases.
Droppings on panels from the birds can block sunlight and the amount of collectable energy. In addition, animal droppings anywhere around your panels can harbor bacteria, attract pests, and cause staining or deterioration.
Bird nests and debris accumulated by animals is often combustible. In proximity to wiring, particularly if that wiring has been chewed through, can start a fire, putting your entire home and family at risk.
Proper Inspections
Animals can also harm the roof beneath your solar panels if they are able to nest there for an extended time. The weight of a nest can cause stress on roofs since they are not designed to withstand heavy, unbalanced loads that a nest could result in.

Solar Panel Animal Protections Services
One of the largest risks to solar panels in the area is wildlife. Rooftop solar panels are elevated from a roof by a few inches, creating a space beneath that is warm and protected from wind, rain, snow, and predators. For many animals, this is the perfect location to build a nest, and once animals live under these panels, they become more likely to scratch, claw, and otherwise damage the panels in ways that are expensive and irreversible.
