Pigeons Under Solar Panels

We provide solar panel screening and ledge and roofline exclusion across the Las Vegas valley, backed by licensed technicians.

Signs of nesting pigeons

Pigeons build nests beneath solar panels and roof tiles. Recognizing where birds gather on your roof helps technicians place physical exclusion directly over active areas.

  • Rooftop droppings

    Birds often settle beneath rooftop solar panels and tiles, where droppings and nesting debris accumulate over time.

  • Debris under panels

    Twigs and debris accumulate beneath solar arrays when birds choose protected areas under panels to build nests.

  • Nests under roof tiles

    Pigeons frequently nest under roof tiles, leaving accumulated nesting material and droppings near tile openings.

  • Droppings below panels

    Pigeon droppings and nesting material often collect on roof surfaces or patios directly underneath the solar panels.

What we install on homes

Installing physical exclusion mesh keeps pigeons from returning to covered nesting spaces underneath solar panels, ledges, and rooflines across your home.

  • Solar panel screening

    Mesh screening fits around panel perimeters to prevent birds from moving underneath solar equipment.

  • Ledge exclusion

    Physical exclusion placed on flat architectural ledges prevents birds from roosting on structural home surfaces.

  • Roofline exclusion

    Physical exclusion materials seal structural gaps along tile openings and roof edges where birds tend to nest.

How a pigeon job works

  1. Site inspection

    A technician inspects the roofline, solar array, and structural ledges to evaluate nesting areas and access.

  2. Price approval

    You receive a complete recommendation and cost estimate to review and approve before any screening installation starts.

  3. Mesh and exclusion installation

    Our team mounts exterior mesh around panel edges and secures physical exclusion along target ledges.

  4. Final check

    The technician verifies that all screening and physical exclusion materials sit securely along exterior roof surfaces.

What is not included

We do not clean up droppings or nesting debris and we do not repair roofs or solar panels. Our work is strictly limited to installing solar panel mesh screening and physical exclusion along rooflines and ledges.

Pigeon control questions answered

Does screening affect solar panels?

Our technicians install mesh screening around the outer perimeter of the solar panels to physically block pigeons from nesting underneath. We do not perform work on the solar panels themselves, and our service makes no claims regarding panel performance or equipment warranties.

Why do pigeons pick solar panels?

Pigeons naturally seek out protected spaces and nest under rooftop solar panels and roof tiles. Over time, their droppings and nesting debris build up beneath the panels. Installing mesh screening around the outer edge of the solar panels physically keeps birds from accessing these nesting spots.

Do you offer dropping cleanup?

No. We do not provide dropping cleanup, nesting waste removal, or structural repairs to roofs or solar equipment. Property owners arrange roof cleaning or contractor repairs separately before or after our installation.

How does pigeon control pricing work?

Pricing varies by property height, roof design, and the linear footage of screening required. Your technician inspects the rooftop first and presents a clear quote for your approval prior to scheduling installation.

Dana did a blacklight inspection at night and found bark scorpions in our block wall. She treated the yard and installed weep screen guards. Now our Scorpion Plan includes visits every two months.

We needed a formal Wood Destroying Insect report to sell our house. Marco came out and inspected the slab and garage thoroughly. He sent the written report to our agent the next business day.

We heard scratching in the attic. Luis found where roof rats were getting in, sealed the entry points with steel mesh, and set traps. He came back to check the traps just like he promised.

We use the quarterly plan for ants and spiders. When we saw a few ants return near the kitchen in summer, they came back out and treated the area again at no charge.

Kim gave us a written checklist to prepare our bedrooms for bed bug treatment. She treated the furniture and baseboards, then returned about two weeks later to check for activity.
