Pest Eradication and Solar Panel Bird Protection
EXCELLENT Based on 391 reviews Rob & Theresa Blazye2025-04-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark customer service was excellent from the start. I filled in an online form and the next day he called me and we talked through the pigeon problem we were facing with our solar panels. He was able to come the following week and install the pigeon proofing. We had a few companies either never answer my emails or come and say that can't do it without an expense cherry picker or scaffold. Mark is polite, professional and a pleasure to work with. The mesh installed is top quality and all the cornering lines are matched up neatly and there isn't any overhang. Would 100% recommend him for your pest control needs. Dean Baker2025-04-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a problem with pigeons nesting underneath our solar panels. Mark and his team at A & H Pest Control provided an outstanding service from start to finish. From the initial contact to the completion of the work, they were professional, responsive, and informative, even offering great aftercare advice. All nests were humanely removed, and they thoroughly cleaned the solar panels, gutters, windows, and driveway of any droppings. They installed a smart and discreet 3mm galvanised steel mesh with a fantastic 15-year guarantee. Highly recommend their services – a top-notch job all around! Tom Faraday2025-04-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark and his colleague did a brilliant job at making our noisy upstairs neighbours look for a new place to squat in. They were very friendly, efficient and super tidy - Mark, not the pigeons. I’d certainly go back to them with any other pest issues and recommend them to anyone who needs to deal with their solar panels. Thanks guys! zeroaid2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark is a brilliant pest controller. I called him up today, advised him of the issue I was having and he promptly fitted me in and came round a couple of hours after we had spoken. Compared to other companies I reached out to off of the BPCA, A&H really came up trumps. Fantastic service, highly recommended. Support your local businesses.

Mark went above and beyond to resolve the mouse problem in our property and was always very friendly, helpful and punctual. This is the second time I have used their services at two different properties and on both occasions they have done an outstanding job. Thanks so much!

Mark fitted Pigeon guards to my flat roof house , replacing pigeon guards that had been poorly fitted by someone else only 6 months earlier. He arrived promptly on time, and provided a professional and friendly service. The work was completed very quickly and to a high standard. The pigeon guards even after a recent strong storm are in tact. Excellent workmanship and service. Paul Fitchett2024-12-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Without doubt a really good job done with high quality mesh & fittings, guaranteed to keep the feral feathered fiends out for years to come and at a reasonable price too. Thanks to Mark and team for a great job. Emily Miller2024-11-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely thrilled with the work completed by Mark and team today. My roof was an absolutely mess and now I can be proud of it. No pigeons harmed in the process and the mess was cleared from under the panels and from the gutters! They even threw in a bit of driveway cleaning too. Communication was brilliant and explanation of the process was delivered in detail. And just to add, Mark and his team were so friendly that even my neighbour commented on their good manner and friendliness. HIGHLY recommend. Thank you so much for sorting my mess of a roof out! :-) mark jackson2024-10-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. For the past year we have had bird problems with Starlings trying to nest in the eves of our roof. Apart from the noise they made the starlings also badly stained our wall rendering with droppings and twigs on our porch roof. Decided to get bird proofing and found A & H Pest control on the internet. Mark was very understanding when I told him of our bird problems and he agreed to come round and bird proof the entry points of where the starlings gained access. He done a brilliant job on blocking the holes and putting spikes to deter the birds from coming back to nest. Would definitely recommend A & H Bird Control to anyone experiencing problems with birds.

Stop Pigeons under your Solar Panels
Solar panels are an excellent investment for reducing energy bills and contributing to a greener planet—but without protection, they can quickly attract an unwanted problem: pigeons. The gap between your roof and the solar panels offers a warm, sheltered environment that birds find ideal for nesting. This not only creates noise and mess but significantly impacts your solar panel efficiency over time.
Nesting birds bring more than just droppings—they introduce mites, fleas, and other parasites that can spread across your roof. Bird droppings are highly acidic and, when left on the surface of your panels, can block sunlight and corrode key components. Studies have shown that even partial coverage of a panel by droppings can reduce its energy output by up to 50%. If an entire cell is obscured, energy conversion can stop completely. That’s why pigeon proofing solar panels is essential for maintaining optimal performance.
Beyond energy loss, bird activity can lead to long-term damage. Nesting materials clog gutters, loosen panel brackets, and pose a fire risk due to dried debris. Implementing effective solar panel bird barriers—such as mesh protection—is a proven way to avoid these problems entirely.
Mesh systems are the industry standard for pigeon proofing solar panels. These barriers are designed to block all entry points while maintaining airflow under your panels. Installed using specialised metal clips, the mesh sits securely without the need for drilling or screws—so your roof stays intact, and your solar panel warranties remain valid. Most importantly, the mesh is virtually invisible from ground level, preserving your roof’s aesthetic appeal while delivering long-term protection using metal clips and metal ties, no plastic clips or cable ties as these can degrade over time becoming brittle.
By investing in pigeon proofing solar panels, you protect your energy savings, extend the life of your system, and reduce ongoing maintenance costs. Whether your system is newly installed or already showing signs of bird activity, it’s never too late to act. Let A&H Pest Control help you keep your panels clean, clear, and producing energy at their full potential.

Pigeon Proofing your Solar Panels
Solar panels attract birds because its a warm, sheltered and a safe area to roost and to raise their young. This creates an ideal habitat for the birds and for the mites and fleas that live in and around their nests. Birds living under the solar panels can interfere/discount the wiring of the solar array and their acidic droppings can damage the connections to the panels. Also, heavy staining from their waste can effect the amount of energy the panels generate.
Birds nest under the solar panels between the panels and the roof.
