Solar Panel Critter Guard for Palos Park Homes
A barrier along the outside of your array that stops pigeons, squirrels and falling leaves from collecting underneath.
The Space Under Your Panels Is Prime Real Estate
To a pigeon, the gap beneath a solar array looks like the perfect home. It is covered, it is warm and it is hard to reach. Squirrels like it too. And on a wooded lot, leaves and twigs blow in and pile up alongside the nesting material. The result is noise, droppings and a soggy mat of debris sitting on your shingles. Closing that gap is the whole point of a critter guard. Solar Panel Removal Palos Park fits a non-penetrating screen along the full outer edge of the array. It fastens to the module frames rather than the roof, so your shingles gain no new holes. Air still moves freely under the panels, but birds, squirrels and debris stay out. Timing it with a reset works best, because the space under the panels is wide open and gets cleaned out before the screen goes on. An array that is staying in place can be fitted too. Either way, the edge of your system ends up tidy and closed.

A look at the perimeter

Mesh without roof holes
Attached to the panel frames, not fastened through the roof.
Tidy corners
Seams and corners trimmed so the mesh sits neatly.

Fitting the Screen
Describe the problem
Birds, chewing, debris or all three. We size up the array over the phone and quote a fixed price.
Clean underneath
During a reset, the space under the panels is cleared while they are off. Otherwise, we clear what is within reach.
Close the edge
Screening wraps the full rim, then we walk it looking for any opening a bird could squeeze through.

The mesh fastens to the array, leaving the roof surface untouched.
