Pigeon Nesting Under Solar Panels Is A Bad Sign
Solar panels provide energy to homes without disrupting the gifts that nature provides. Despite its amazing contribution, like every commodity, these need some loving too. Pigeon nesting under solar panels is an extreme result but it is a possibility unless prevented in advance. Our team came across a rather unclean case recently.
During a job out in Point Cook, our gutter cleaning came across one of the worst cases they have ever seen in a domestic setting.
The panels and gutters were in such a bad state with multiple pigeons nesting underneath the solar panels. With so much bird waste, the drain pipes faced severe clogging, with nowhere for the water to escape.
Troy, our gutter cleaning technician, was able to vacuum gutter clean the perimeter of the house. To discourage the pigeons from nesting, he installed a wire netting around the edge of the solar panels. The pigeon nesting problem under the solar panels is now a thing of the past.
Pigeon or any other bird nesting can be a very common issue under solar panels thus making it a noticeable issue. We recommend proofing your panels at an early stage to save yourself from future headaches.
