Should I Install Pigeon/Bird Proofing For My Solar Panels in Adelaide?

Do you have a problem with pigeons nesting under you solar panel arrays?


Many suburbs in Adelaide such as Glenelg, have a high rate of pigeon and pest bird issues. The short answer is yes. There are other methods of pest and bird control that have been trialed and tested in the past however once you remove the pigeons from under the solar panel arrays, new flocks of birds will come and cause more mess to replace the previous tenants.


The reason the unfortunate problem is due to the way solar panels are mounted onto the solar rail as there is a significant gap between the panels and the roof. This creates an ideal space for birds to nest or leaves from nearby trees to build up over time.

Highlighted below are some common and hazardous issues for your solar investment:

  • Bird droppings on solar panels as a result of increased bird activity (nesting) will lower your solar panel performance

  • Bird droppings can erode metal and cable wiring under the panels

  • Potential fire hazard due to reduced airflow from birds nesting and leaf build up

  • The associated noise, smell and mess from birds or rodents
