Solar Panels Getting Ruined by Pigeons in Lincroft, NJ
Challenge
After noticing a substantial amount of bird droppings all over his solar panels, this homeowner in Lincroft, NJ, called our Nuisance Wildlife division for help. As we carefully inspected the roof, we found a couple pigeons and their nesting debris underneath several solar panels. Turns out, the pigeons were using the solar panels as natural cover for protection from the elements!
Solution
First, we carefully removed all the nesting debris underneath the solar panels and then disinfected the area. Next, in order to prevent the pigeons (as well as all nuisance wildlife) from nesting underneath the solar panels, we installed our solar panel exclusion kit around the entire perimeter of the solar panels. This kit creates a physical barrier to keep birds from accessing and nesting in the area beneath the solar arrays, protecting the roof and equipment from damage. With nowhere to nest, the pigeons will no longer be attracted to the home and the solar panels will be protected from further intrusions from all types of birds and nuisance wildlife.
