How we work – A guide to successful solar panel proofing
With over 14 years experience we know what works and what doesn’t when it comes to solar panel pigeon proofing.
How we work – Solar panel bird proofing is an essential service to keep your solar panels in good working order and maintian the integrity of your roof.
You could, of course try to do it yourself but you would need to have a head for heights, the right tools, the right solar proofing method and the right connectors for the installation.
Here at County Bird Control we have seen it all from throwing tennis balls at pigeons on roofs to squirting them with water – which, by the way, they love!
We have heard the stories of general builders, roofers and even window cleaners thinking they know what is best for you and charging a hefty price in the process.
In our experience pay once, pay twice!
Once the solar panel proofing has been installed by those who don’t understand pigeon behaviour it is almost guaranteed to fail.
Pigeons have all day to try and figure out a way in and they will if the workmanship is poor or the products used are inferior.
Chicken wire, plastic brushes, gutter brushes, plastic owls are all just gimmicks. Products stuck on with mastic or glue or drilled into the side of your solar panesl are likely to void your lengthy warranty from the solar installation company!
Let me guide you through the right and wrong way.
The wrong way to pigeon proof solar panels
There are a number of products on the market. Some made of plastic and others purely just a gimmick.
There are many factors when it comes to protecting solar panels.
Theproducts you need to avoid are:
Plastic combs
Chicken wire
Bird spikes
Wooden blocks
Anything stuck with mastic or glue – which, by the way, can void your warranty
And certainly anything drilled into your solar panels! Guaranteed to void your warranty.

This might look good at first but give it a couple of years and it will go brittle
Check out these disasters!
