Pigeon Proofing Solar Panels In Liverpool

Solar panels in Liverpool are a fantastic addition to your home or business, as they can help you become more sustainable. However, your solar panels can possibly attract potentially annoying pigeons. After installation, the area beneath the panels becomes warm and provides a place for birds and pigeons to nest. Unfortunately, this new guest is not welcome, as they can damage your solar panels and hinder their performance.

These birds can also cause damage to your property in general. They can ruin the appearance of the exterior of your property, which is especially detrimental if you run a business. JR Cleaning offers a solar panel bird proofing service in Liverpool, which includes putting up bird spikes to help deter birds from nesting beneath your panels and perching on your building.

Importance of bird proofing your solar panels

Bird proofing your solar panels is essential for any building, as birds can be loud and messy. Birds can also damage the panels with their droppings, which can start to cover the surface of the solar panels, making them less efficient.

Pigeons, in particular, can cause significant damage to the performance of your solar panels. Their droppings contain high acidity levels, which can damage the surface of your solar panels and even erode the wires, stopping your solar panels from functioning at all.

Therefore, without bird proofing your solar panels, it may cause long-term damage, which can be costly and time-consuming. Plus, bird droppings, scratches and dirt on your solar panels can be unsightly.

Bird proofing your solar panels

Since solar panels in Liverpool are such a high cost, upfront expense, it is crucial they are looked after, which means bird proofing them properly. JR Cleaning can carry out an inspection to establish the best form of bird proofing for your solar panels and property.

Bird proofing involves forming a barrier around the perimeter of the solar panels to stop birds from nesting beneath the panels. Bird proofing barriers can include bird mesh wire, bird spikes, solar skirts or other barriers suitable for your property.

Different types of bird spikes

Bird spikes are a standard method for bird proofing buildings and solar panels. These discreet yet effective spikes will help deter birds from perching or nesting on your property in Liverpool. Not only can bird spikes protect your solar panels, but they can also stop birds from damaging things such as guttering, chimney pots or beams. Certain birds or a mass of birds can cause damage simply by the pressure they add when they perch on your property.

There are different types of bird spikes to consider, which JR Cleaning can talk you through, many of these spikes can be attached to both curved and flat surfaces. Stainless steel bird spikes are a common choice for commercial and domestic properties, as they are less visible than plastic bird spikes. Stainless steel bird spikes will protect a larger area and will remain sturdy for a long duration of time.

Plastic bird spikes are another option to consider and are less expensive but less sturdy than stainless steel spikes. The benefit of plastic bird spikes is that they are available in various colours, so you can opt for ones that match the aesthetic of your building if you wish.

Benefits of using bird spikes

Having bird spikes professional installed on your property will provide various benefits and advantages. For example, bird spikes:

Help stop birds from perching on your property
Are humane and harmless
Will be suitable for deterring birds or different sizes
Are easy to install
Are relatively inconspicuous

Birds spikes are not designed to hurt birds; instead, they are simply there to deter birds from perching on your property, which could cause damage or unwanted mess. The bird spikes are blunt, which will prevent birds from getting injured, and will also ensure our team will not get hurt while installing the bird spikes on the property.

This humane form of bird control is effective against large birds and is a durable form of bird proofing that will last for years. With the flexible base, different materials and colours, bird spikes are suitable for various properties wanted to maintain the appearance and quality of their property.
