Solar Panel Critter Guard
Guaranteed removal of pigeons, droppings, and nesting under solar panels. Critter guard installation with a lifetime warranty for the lifespan of your panels.
Every solar guards job, the same standard
No upsells, no surprise fees. Every job runs to the same scope.
Removal first
We trap and remove any pigeons, squirrels, or other wildlife nesting under the array before installing the guard.
Roof cleanup
Guano, nests, and feathers are removed and the area is decontaminated. We use HEPA-filtered equipment.
Stainless steel guard
Black, color-matched, marine-grade stainless mesh clipped to the panel frame. No drilling into the roof.
Lifetime warranty
Critter guards are warrantied for the lifespan of your panels. If wildlife gets back in, we come back at no charge.
What to expect
Pigeons and squirrels love the warm, sheltered space under residential solar panels. They build nests, drop guano on the roof, chew wiring, and short out panels. We remove the animals and existing nests, clean and decontaminate the roof underneath, and install a stainless steel critter guard around the perimeter of the array. The guard is rated for the lifespan of the panels and warrantied against re-entry.
Common questions about solar panel critter guard
Why do animals get under solar panels?
The 4-6 inch gap between the panel and the roof is warm, sheltered, and predator-free. Pigeons nest there in spring, and squirrels chew wires looking for nesting material year-round.
Will the guards damage my roof?
No. Guards clip directly onto the aluminum panel frame with stainless clips. We do not drill, screw, or otherwise penetrate the roof or the panels.
Will the guards void my solar warranty?
No. Because we attach to the frame rather than the panel, our installation is non-invasive and does not void manufacturer warranties. Always confirm with your installer if you have questions.
How long does installation take?
Most residential systems take a single half-day visit. Cleanup adds time depending on how long the wildlife has been there.
