Are you tired of birds damaging your solar panels? If so, you are not alone. Many solar panel owners face the challenge of protecting their investment from bird-related issues, such as droppings, nests and physical damage. Bird damage to solar panels can cause a lot of damage to energy generating equipment. To prevent this damage you can use bird spikes. Bird Spikes: Install bird spikes around the perimeter of your solar panel. These sharp, pointed spikes make it impossible for birds to land or perch on the panels, preventing any potential damage.
