Got Pigeons Under Your Solar Panels?
It’s a Health Risk!
- Pigeon droppings can spread diseases, including salmonella, histoplasmosis, and cryptococcosis, all of which can be dangerous to children and pets who play in the yard.
- Dried droppings can turn to airborne dust, increasing the risk of respiratory issues like asthma or infections, especially in small kids or pets with sensitive lungs.
- Kids and pets often come into direct contact with contaminated areas, like patios, play areas, or lawns, where droppings have rolled off rooftops.
- Standing droppings attract insects and parasites, which can then find their way into your home, bringing additional health risks.
- Exposure to infected nesting materials can also be harmful. Pigeons often nest under solar panels, leaving behind bacteria-laden waste that builds up quickly.

FAQs About Bird Proofing Solar Panels
How do pigeons damage solar panels?
Pigeons often nest under solar panels, where their droppings and nesting materials can cause serious problems. The droppings can corrode the surface of the panels, reducing their efficiency and lifespan. Nesting debris can block sunlight and even interfere with wiring, which may lead to electrical issues or fire hazards.
What problems do pigeon droppings cause for roofs and gutters?
Pigeon droppings are highly acidic and can eat away at roofing materials, causing discoloration and weakening the roof over time. When droppings build up in gutters, they can cause blockages that lead to water damage, leaks, and mold growth.
Can pigeons attract other pests to my roof or solar panels?
Yes, pigeons can attract other unwanted pests. Their nests and droppings provide food and shelter for insects and rodents, which can create additional problems for your property and even pose health risks.
Are there health risks from having pigeons on my roof?
Pigeons can carry diseases that may be transmitted through their droppings or feathers. Breathing in dust from dried droppings can also cause respiratory issues. This makes it important to address pigeon problems quickly and thoroughly.
How can I keep pigeons away from my solar panels and roof?
Installing mesh guards or netting around your solar panels is an effective way to block pigeons from nesting. Anti-roosting spikes and regular cleaning can also help. For the best results, professional pigeon eviction and prevention services can provide a humane and long-lasting solution.
