Squirrels, rats, and wildlife nesting under solar panels cause thousands in wiring damage annually. Fix My Solar installs professional UV-resistant critter guard mesh — keeping animals out without affecting airflow or panel performance.
The gap between solar panels and a rooftop is perfect sheltered space for squirrels, rats, and pigeons. In South Florida’s year-round warm climate, wildlife activity under panels is constant — not seasonal.
The damage is expensive: rodents chew DC wiring insulation creating arc faults that trigger shutdowns and can cause roof fires. Bird nesting accumulates corrosion-accelerating moisture on racking and junction boxes. And wildlife presence attracts more wildlife.
We install heavy-gauge galvanized steel mesh with UV-resistant PVC coating, clipped directly to panel frames — no drilling, no roof penetrations. Clean, nearly invisible from the ground, typically 2-3 hours for a standard residential system.
Inspect under all panels for nests, wildlife damage, and chewed wiring. Repair quote provided for any damage found.
Heavy-gauge galvanized UV-coated mesh cut and shaped to fit your specific panel layout.
