Protect Your Solar PV System from Birds in Fife, Scotland

Birds—especially pigeons—along with squirrels, can cause significant damage to your solar PV system by nesting underneath the panels. The mess they leave behind isn’t just unsightly—it can lead to long-term damage and reduced energy generation, ultimately costing you money.

Our galvanized mesh pigeon protection system offers a simple, effective solution to this problem. By preventing birds from accessing the void beneath your panels, we help ensure consistent solar output for both residential and commercial properties.

Why Choose Our Solar Bird Protection Service?

• Premium Materials: We use only high-quality products, backed by a 2-year guarantee on all pigeon protection installations.
• No Panel Drilling: Our system preserves your solar panel warranty. We use a clip-on galvanized mesh that avoids any need for drilling.
• Complete Protection Kit:
  • 19-gauge galvanized wire mesh (30m length x 200mm height; mesh size: 25mm x 12.5mm)
  • Retaining posts with locking washers
  • Corner cable ties
  • Tube of Weathermate silicone adhesive

This kit is designed to be a cost-effective solution for preventing all types of birds from nesting under your solar panels. While pigeons are the most common culprits, squirrels and other birds can also pose a threat.

Installation Notes

For best results, your solar panels should have flat sides to attach the retaining posts. However, if needed, the posts can be affixed to the underside of the panels. This method may require more effort but can result in a cleaner, more discreet finish by bending the mesh and securing it underneath.

The retaining posts feature a galvanized steel base, aluminium pin, and locking washer for secure, long-lasting protection.
