If you're seeing pigeons on your roof or around your solar panels, there's a good chance they've moved underneath the solar panel system. Solar panels create a protected area that pigeons use for shelter and nesting. Once they move in, the problem usually grows over time.
We remove pigeon nesting activity and install solar panel critter guard systems designed to help keep pigeons from getting back underneath the panels.

Solar panels create an ideal nesting location for pigeons. The space underneath the panels provides shelter from weather, predators, and other disturbances. Once pigeons discover the area, they often continue returning to it year after year.
Pigeons are creatures of habit. If they successfully nest underneath a solar panel system, they often return to the same location unless the area is properly protected.
The gap between the roof and the solar panels gives pigeons a protected place to rest and build nests. The area stays dry, hidden, and difficult for predators to reach.
Many homeowners don't realize pigeons are underneath their solar panels until they begin noticing increased activity around the roof.
One of the first signs is seeing pigeons regularly sitting on or around the solar panels.
Droppings often begin appearing on roofing, siding, patios, driveways, decks, and walkways below the solar panels.
You may hear cooing, movement, or nesting activity coming from the roof area.
Homeowners often report seeing pigeons disappear underneath the edge of the solar panel system and reappear later.
The goal isn't just removing the pigeons. The goal is preventing them from returning.
We inspect the solar panel system and identify where pigeons are accessing the area underneath the panels.
Nesting materials and debris are removed from accessible areas beneath the solar panel system.
A specialized exclusion barrier is installed around the perimeter of the solar panel system to help prevent pigeons from getting underneath.

Many homeowners call it a critter guard, bird guard, screen, mesh, or netting. Regardless of the name, the purpose is the same: prevent pigeons from accessing the space underneath the solar panels.

Homeowners often refer to the exclusion system using different names, but they all describe the same type of protection.

The exclusion system blocks access beneath the panels while still allowing normal airflow around the solar array.

We provide pigeon removal and solar panel critter guard installation throughout Central Iowa, including Des Moines, Ankeny, Altoona, Bondurant, Johnston, Grimes, Urbandale, Clive, Waukee, Norwalk, Pleasant Hill, Indianola, and surrounding communities.
Will Pigeons Damage My Solar Panels?
Most problems involve nesting activity, droppings, and pigeons repeatedly using the area underneath the panels rather than direct damage to the panels themselves.
If access remains open, pigeons often return. Proper exclusion helps prevent future nesting activity.
Critter guard is a mesh-style exclusion system installed around the perimeter of a solar panel array to help prevent birds from getting underneath.
We serve homeowners throughout Central Iowa within approximately 60 miles of Des Moines.
