Why Your Solar Panels Need Bird Guards
The gap between your solar panels and roof creates an attractive nesting spot for birds, squirrels, and other critters. In South Central Connecticut, pigeons, starlings, and sparrows are the most common culprits, along with squirrels in wooded areas like Bethany, Woodbridge, and Cheshire.
Nesting animals bring debris, droppings, and potential damage to your wiring. Bird droppings are acidic and can permanently stain panel glass if left unchecked. Squirrels have been known to chew through wiring, causing system failures and even fire hazards.
Our bird guard system uses UV-resistant mesh that attaches securely to panel edges using clips — no drilling into your roof. The mesh blocks the gap while maintaining proper airflow under your panels, which is important for panel efficiency and longevity.
Before installation, we clean under your panels and remove any existing nests or debris. The guards are custom-fitted to your specific panel layout for a seamless, professional appearance.

Why do I need bird guards on my solar panels?
Birds and squirrels nest under solar panels, bringing debris, droppings, and potential wiring damage. Bird guards prevent nesting while maintaining airflow. They also reduce the frequency of cleaning needed.
Will bird guards affect my panel performance?
No. Our guards attach to the panel edges and do not cover any part of the panel surface. They actually help performance by reducing debris accumulation under and around panels.
How long do bird guards last?
Our UV-resistant mesh guards typically last 15-20 years — the lifespan of your panels. They require no maintenance once installed.
