Solar panels attract birds quite easily due to its installation. They create a perfect space for birds to roost and nest under the solar panels. The warmth emitted all year around is another benefit to the birds. Not only birds but the insects and lice inhabiting the nest will benefit from these panels.

This is the reason that solar panels need to be bird proof to prevent the loss of energy as well as wasting your money in the long run.

Solar panels are a great way to fulfill your energy needs. You can also earn money by selling back excess electricity to the grid.

Bird droppings will cut back the ability of the solar panels to collect sunlight which is essential to generate electricity. The panels must be kept in pristine condition at all times to maximize the performance of these panels. If the cells are half covered with bird droppings, they may lose at least 50% of their ability to generate electricity. If the whole cell is covered with droppings, it can reduce the energy conversion rate to zero Bird proofing these panels is extremely important due to this reason. It improves the productivity and efficiency of the panels.

This is the main reason that you need to consider bird proofing for solar panels today. Do not delay and lose your hard earned money in the long run.
