Solar Panel Pigeon Proofing

In recent years the UK has seen a huge demand in the installation of roof top solar panels. Unfortunately, these panels have also provided pests such as birds (especially Feral Pigeons) and squirrels a perfect place to nest underneath. The noise from pigeons can be a huge nuisance and droppings created can also continuously block gutters and cause a slip hazard below. Droppings on top of the panels will also dramatically reduce the effectiveness of the panels. Pestfree provide a professional solar panel proofing service to homes and businesses.

  • Proofing Work

    Pestfree will legally remove the birds from beneath the panels. Any young (squabs) will be humanly dispatched as they will not survive once removed.
