Pigeon Problems Under Solar Panels in Reno, Sparks, and Carson City
Solar panels are a smart investment in Northern Nevada—but if you’re dealing with pigeons nesting under them, you’ve likely discovered one of the most frustrating downsides. At Gold Country Wildlife Control, we specialize in pigeon removal and solar panel screening for homes and businesses in Reno, Sparks, and Carson City, providing long-term solutions to protect your property.
Why Do Pigeons Nest Under Solar Panels?
The space beneath solar panels creates an ideal shelter for pigeons. It’s shaded, dry, and protected from predators—perfect conditions for pigeons to build nests, raise young, and leave behind droppings, feathers, and debris. Unfortunately, this leads to a range of problems:
Constant noise and mess
Corrosive droppings damaging roofs and gutters
Gutters clogged with poop
Health risks from pigeon waste and bird mites
Our Solar Panel Pigeon Screening Services
At Gold Country Wildlife Control, we offer a comprehensive solution to stop pigeons from turning your solar array into their personal roosting ground.
✅ Nesting Removal
We start by safely removing all pigeon nests, droppings, and debris from under the panels. This cleanup helps prevent disease and discourages pigeons from returning.
✅ Professional Solar Panel Screening
We install durable mesh screens around the perimeter of your solar panels, effectively sealing off the space and preventing pigeons from accessing the area. These screens are designed to protect your panels without affecting performance or airflow.
✅ Works on All Roof Types
Whether you have shingle roofing or Spanish tile, our experienced team can secure the screens without damaging your roofing materials or your solar equipment. We use proven methods tailored to your specific roof type.
✅ Additional Bird Deterrents
To further reduce pigeon activity, we can also install bird deterrent systems like bird spikes, optical gel, or other visual and tactile deterrents to discourage pigeons from landing or roosting elsewhere on your roof.
Protect Your Solar Investment
Don’t let pigeons ruin your solar panel system. Screening is a one-time, long-term solution that eliminates the root of the problem without resorting to ineffective quick fixes. Our goal is to provide clean, safe, and pigeon-free solar panels for homeowners and businesses throughout Reno, Sparks, and Carson City.
