This is a common issue that can be problematic in a number of ways. Nesting birds can deposit their droppings and dirt/debris on the surface of the panels, reducing overall panel output and system yield. They can also interfere with system cabling, as well as cause blockages in guttering and the roof’s drainage system as materials from the nest, feathers and food debris can build up over time.

If you are experiencing this issue, you might want to consider installing a wire mesh system around the perimeter of the solar panels to prevent access to pigeons and other nesting birds, protecting the installation and ensuring that your system yield is unaffected.

Eco7 are not your typical solar PV and energy storage company. We do not employ sales agents, we do not cold call customers and do not have doorstep canvassers. Instead, we use the power of the internet to advertise our services, and all the enquiries we generate are passive. That is to say, people only find us when they are looking for something and not because we have canvassed them with direct marketing.

By keeping our operation trim, and by not employing sales agents, we can keep control of both pricing and protect our reputation by ensuring we offer the very best levels of service and after-sales care. It is why we have a 100% positive feedback rating, and why we are ranked #1 on TrustPilot in the Solar PV category.
