Critter Guard Installation
Birds, squirrels, and rodents love the shelter under your solar panels — and they can cause thousands in wiring damage. Our heavy-duty critter guard keeps them out for good.
Schedule ServiceHeavy-Duty Mesh
Powder-coated steel mesh rated for decades of sun, rain, and wind exposure. Won't rust, sag, or degrade.
Full Exclusion
We seal the entire perimeter of your array — every gap, every edge. No entry points left unguarded.
Panel-Safe Design
Clips to the panel frames without penetrating your roof or voiding your panel warranty.
The Damage Pests Cause
Rodents chew through everything. Squirrels and rats are drawn to the warmth under your panels. Once there, they gnaw through wire insulation — causing shorts, ground faults, and in the worst cases, roof fires.
Birds nest in the gap. Pigeons and other birds build nests in the space between your panels and roof. Their droppings are acidic, corroding junction boxes and connections. Nesting debris also traps moisture against your roof.
Most solar systems have zero protection. Standard installations leave the panel edges wide open. If your installer didn't include critter guard, your system is exposed.
Our Installation Process
1. Inspection. We check for existing pest activity, damage, and entry points. If there are nests or active infestations, we'll recommend removal before guard installation.
2. Custom fit. Every array is different. We measure and cut the mesh to fit your specific panel layout — no gaps, no shortcuts.
3. Secure mounting. The mesh clips directly to the panel frames using stainless steel fasteners. Nothing penetrates your roof or panels. Fully compliant with manufacturer warranty requirements.
4. Final inspection. We walk the full perimeter to verify every edge is sealed, then document the installation with photos for your records.
