Pigeon and debris protection
New Lenox Solar Panel Critter Guard
Non-penetrating mesh closes the gap under your panels, so pigeons cannot nest there and leaves cannot pile up on the roof.
Shut the Opening Beneath the Array
Underneath a solar panel there is a pocket that is shaded, sheltered and out of reach. Pigeons notice. When a flock settles in, you get nests, droppings, noise and a pile of debris that holds water against the shingles. Wind adds its own load of leaves and twigs. Critter guard fixes the gap. Solar Panel Removal New Lenox fits a non-penetrating mesh along the array's outer perimeter. Clips hold it to the panel frames, so nothing is drilled into the roof and no new holes are made. Birds cannot get in. Debris stays out. Air still moves under the panels. If birds are already nesting, we clear out what is under the array before the mesh goes on. Critter guard is also a smart add-on during a detach and reset. The panels are being handled anyway, and fitting the mesh when they go back on means your new roof starts out clean underneath. Homeowners around New Lenox and Mokena often add it at reset time for exactly that reason.
