Pigeons, starlings and mynas nest under solar arrays. Durable bird-proof mesh across Canberra and the ACT — and we clear the mess first.
The gap between your panels and the roof is warm, dry, hidden from weather and completely undisturbed — as close to a purpose-built nesting box as a bird will ever find. In Canberra, pigeons and common starlings are the usual culprits, with mynas and sparrows close behind.
Once a pair moves in, it escalates fast. Nesting material packs in under the panels, droppings coat the glass and run down into the gutters, and the mess draws mites, lice and other pests toward your roof cavity. Canberra’s cold winters make the spot even more attractive, so birds often settle in for the season rather than just passing through.
birds return to a proven nesting site — which is why a one-off clean without proofing almost always ends with them back the following season
Especially early morning — the clearest sign something has moved in under the array.
White streaking on the glass, gutters or the wall below the roofline.
Nesting material working its way down into the gutter line.
Shaded and soiled cells produce less — often the first thing an owner actually notices.
We check the full perimeter of your array for nests, droppings and gaps, then give you a fixed quote — free and no-obligation

Rated 5 stars by homeowners across Sydney and Canberra.
Bird proofing, panel cleaning and gutter vacuuming handled in the same booking.
Droppings and nesting debris shade cells and cut generation. Sealed panels stay clean and keep producing.
Nesting material and waste wash straight into the gutters below, causing overflow and water damage
Bird nests bring mites, lice and insects right above your ceiling — proofing removes the invitation.
Acidic droppings corrode frames, fixings and roof sheets over time. Mesh prevents years of slow damage.
The ideal window is before the spring breeding season, when birds start scouting for sites. Proofing an empty array is quicker, cheaper and avoids the question of disturbing an active nest. If birds have already settled in, we still handle it — we just clear and clean first, then proof
Pro tip: Bundle bird proofing with a solar panel clean. Droppings have to come off the glass anyway, and one visit covers both.
There’s no point sealing mesh around panels still coated in droppings. Most customers pair proofing with a solar panel clean — we clean the array, clear the debris, then fit the mesh so it stays clean.

Yes. The aim is to make the space unavailable, not to harm birds. Nests are cleared and the perimeter sealed so birds relocate naturally.
No — the mesh clips to the panel frame rather than drilling into panels or roof sheets, which is exactly why it does not affect your warranty.
Yes — the mesh and clips are chosen to handle frost, heat and UV without rusting or going brittle.
Yes, and we recommend it. Droppings need to come off the glass before the mesh goes on, so most customers bundle a panel clean with proofing.
Most residential arrays are done in a single visit. Larger or heavily nested systems can take longer — we will tell you at quote stage, not on the day.
