It's recommended to clean your solar panels at least twice a year to maintain optimal performance.

We use a filtration system that produces deionized water to scrub and clean the surface of your solar panels for a spot free finish. 

Yes, pigeons can pose health risks to humans. Here’s how:

1. Diseases – Their droppings can carry harmful pathogens like Histoplasmosis, Cryptococcosis, and Psittacosis, which can become airborne and affect breathing.

2. Parasites – Pigeons often carry mites, lice, and ticks, which can infest homes and irritate skin.

3. Contaminated Surfaces – Droppings can contaminate water, food areas, or walkways, increasing the risk of illness.

4. Allergies – Dried droppings and feathers can trigger allergic reactions or worsen asthma.

Proper cleanup and pigeon control are important for health and hygiene.

Birds, especially pigeons, like nesting under solar panels because:

1. Shelter – The space offers protection from weather, predators, and direct sunlight.

2. Warmth – Panels trap heat, creating a cozy spot for nesting.

3. Safety – Raised panels are hard for predators (and people) to reach.

4. Stable Platform – The structure is solid and secure for building nests.

It’s an ideal nesting spot from a bird’s perspective—safe, warm, and out of sight.

To get rid of pigeons from your solar panels and home, use a combination of these proven methods:

1. Install Solar Panel Mesh

• Blocks access under panels where pigeons nest.

• Durable and non-damaging to your system.

2. Use Bird Spikes

• Place along roof edges, ledges, and other flat surfaces to prevent roosting.

3. Remove Nests and Clean Droppings

• Clean the area thoroughly to discourage return.

• Use proper safety gear or hire professionals—droppings can carry disease.

4. Seal Entry Points

• Close any gaps or crevices around your home’s eaves, vents, or attic where pigeons could enter.

Combining these methods usually delivers the best results.

 

• Acidity: Bird droppings are highly acidic due to uric acid. This can eat away at roofing materials, especially if your roof is made of metal, asphalt shingles, or tar-based materials.

• Moisture Retention: Large accumulations of droppings can trap moisture against the roof, leading to mold, mildew, or rot—especially on wood or porous surfaces.

• Clogged Gutters: Droppings mixed with nesting materials can clog gutters and downspouts, causing water to back up and potentially damage roofing, siding, or even your foundation.

• Aesthetic Damage: Beyond structural harm, bird droppings are unsightly and can stain surfaces, reducing your home's curb appeal.
