New Installation Video: How to Install the Solar Panel Deterrent
Rooftop solar panels are saving property owners considerable money in energy costs. The panels convert sunlight directly into electricity and are becoming increasingly efficient every year. One significant threat to this efficiency is pest birds and rooftop critters that are attracted to the lofty shelter these panels provide. For more on protecting your investment, read our guides on how to install solar panel bird deterrents and our top bird-proofing tips for commercial buildings.
Fortunately, the bird control pros at Bird B Gone have developed a solution to this problem: the Solar Panel Bird Deterrent. It consists of a specially designed mesh and clips that block birds and critters from accessing the space underneath your panels.
