Pigeons under your panels?

The signs there are birds under your solar panels

Pigeon proofing solar panels means two things: getting the pigeons and their nests out, then closing the gap so they cannot get back under. We remove pigeons from solar panels on homes and businesses across Melbourne, and we do solar pigeon proofing on new systems before the birds find them. It is pigeon control solar panels owners can rely on, with solar panel protection from pigeons and pigeon protection for solar panels covered by a written warranty. Solar panel pigeon removal is one visit: pigeon removal, solar panels cleared underneath, gap closed.

  • Cooing and scratching on the roof at dawnPigeons settle under the panels at night and start moving at first light.
  • Pigeons walking in and out under the panel edgeThe gap between the panels and the tiles is a sheltered, dry nesting spot.
  • Droppings on the panels, roof and drivewayA build up below the array means they are nesting or roosting under it.
  • Twigs and feathers poking out from under the panelsNesting material spills out of the array and ends up in the gutters.
  • Bird mites inside the houseWhen a nest goes quiet, the mites move on, often into the rooms underneath.

Why it should not wait

Pigeons under solar panels do not leave on their own

This is what we find when pigeons have been under an array for a season or two.

Blocked gutters and downpipes

Nesting material and droppings wash off the array into the gutters and block them.

Droppings on the panels and roof

Droppings build up on the glass and the tiles. They stain, they smell and they are a slip risk.

Noise and bird mites

Dawn noise above the ceiling, and mites that move into the house when a nest goes quiet.

More pigeons every season

Each nest raises more pigeons that come back to the same array, so the colony grows every year.

Pricing

What does pigeon proofing solar panels cost?

Every solar system is different, so we price your job on the phone before we book. This is what moves the price.

How many panelsAn 8 panel townhouse array is a smaller job than a 30 panel system on a family home.
Single or double storeyHeight, roof pitch and access decide how long the job takes and what equipment we bring.
How the array is laid outOne block of panels is quicker to proof than several separate groups across the roof.
How many nestsOne pair of pigeons, or a colony that has been under there for a few seasons.
How much clean upA few weeks of droppings, or a thick build up under the panels and in the gutters.

Shop deterrents or proper removal?

Why shop deterrents do not stop pigeons under panels

Bird deterrents are the most searched bird product in Melbourne. They can stop birds landing, but once birds are nesting they leave the real problem where it is.

The birds

The birds we remove, and the ones we do not

Almost every nest we pull out of a Melbourne roof belongs to one of these introduced pest birds.

Feral pigeonsIndian mynasStarlingsSparrows

Magpies, swallows, lorikeets and other native birds are protected under the Wildlife Act 1975. An active native nest is never touched, and we tell you on the call what can lawfully be done.

Our promise

If they come back, so do we

Before we start, we agree your warranty period in writing. If the birds are back inside it, we come back and sort it at no cost to you.

Questions

Pigeon proofing questions

How much does pigeon proofing solar panels cost?

It depends on how many panels you have, the height of the roof and how many pigeons are nesting under them. We give you the price on the phone before we book, with no obligation. Book it for today and 10% comes off the job.

Can you come today?

Most days, yes. Call in the morning and there is a good chance we can be on your roof that afternoon. If we cannot make it today we tell you on the call and give you the earliest time.

Do you remove the nests first?

Yes. Every job starts by clearing the nests, nesting material and droppings from under the panels. Proofing over a nest just traps the problem underneath.

How do you stop them getting back under?

We close off the gap around the edge of the array. We show you on the day exactly what we are doing, and it is covered by your written warranty with a free return visit.

Can you do it on a new system?

Yes. If your panels are going in on a new build, proofing them before the pigeons find the gap is the easiest job of all.

What if there are eggs or chicks under the panels?

Tell us when you call. With pest birds we talk you through the options and the timing. With a native bird, an active nest is not touched.

Do you do commercial and strata work?

Yes. Warehouses, factories, childcare centres, schools and body corporate roofs with solar arrays.
