Other Ways to Prevent Them from Roosting Beneath the Panels
Seal Gaps and Entry Points
Examine the space around the solar panels and close off any openings where birds might enter. Use materials like wire mesh, caulking, or metal flashing to block potential access points.
Deterrent Objects
Place visual deterrents close to the solar panels to frighten birds away, including reflective items (CDs, aluminum tape, etc.), scare balloons, or decoys mimicking predators.
