Why Have Pigeons Chosen To Nest Under My Solar Panels

How to Stop Pigeons from Nesting Under Solar Panels:
Pigeons nesting under solar panels is a common problem faced by many homeowners. Understanding why pigeons choose to nest under solar panels can help you find the best way to prevent and control this issue.

Why Do Pigeons Nest Under Solar Panels?
As urban development increases and natural habitats shrink, pigeons and other wildlife are forced to find new shelters. The space beneath solar panels — typically 4 to 6 inches from the roof — provides an ideal, sheltered environment for pigeons to build their nests.

The Problem with Pigeons Nesting on Your Roof
Unlike many other birds that breed seasonally, pigeons breed year-round, producing two offspring at a time. Once they start nesting under your solar panels, they rarely leave, often attracting more pigeons. This can lead to a large pigeon population on your roof, causing noise, mess, and potential damage.

Should I be Worried About Birds Nesting Under My Solar Panels.

Should I Be Worried About Birds Nesting Under My Solar Panels?

If you’ve noticed bird droppings on your driveway, patio, or pathways, it could be an early sign of a bigger issue — pigeons nesting under your solar panels. Pigeon droppings, also known as guano, are one of the first indicators that birds have made a home on your roof.

Why Birds Nest Under Solar Panels

Pigeons are drawn to the sheltered space beneath solar panels, where they often build nests around the electrical wiring blocks. Once established, these nests become a base not only for laying eggs but also for defecating — leading to a significant build-up of pigeon guano.

The Hidden Dangers of Pigeons Under Solar Panels

Over time, the accumulation of guano hardens and binds the nest material, creating a crust that can interfere with your solar panel components. One of the biggest risks is to the wire connectors — the male and female clips that link your panels together. If these become clogged or damaged by nesting debris or droppings, it can disrupt your system’s performance or cause long-term damage.

Protect Your Solar Panel Investment

If left unchecked, birds nesting under your solar panels can lead to electrical issues, reduced efficiency, and costly repairs. Addressing the problem early is key to avoiding damage and ensuring your solar power system continues running at peak performance.

Why Choose Us?

Why Choose Stop The Pigeon for Bird Proofing Your Solar Panels?

As solar energy becomes more popular, many installers are starting to offer bird protection for solar panels as an optional add-on. While some do a decent job, we’ve seen many installations using substandard materials like rolled-up chicken wire or wood battens. For most solar installers, bird proofing is not a priority — and that can become your problem when birds return and start nesting under your solar panels.

At Stop The Pigeon, we specialize exclusively in solar panel bird proofing. Unlike general solar companies that treat bird protection as an afterthought, it’s our core service — and we do it right, every time.

We’ve been protecting solar panels from birds since 2018, and we’ve built a strong reputation for quality, reliability, and safety. Our bird guards are designed to prevent pigeons and other birds from nesting under your solar panels, helping you avoid costly damage, mess, and reduced panel efficiency.

We value your time. That’s why we guarantee a fair and accurate quote within 24 hours of assessing your property. No delays, no hidden fees — just expert service you can rely on.
