Cheap DIY Pigeon Deterrent for Solar Panels

What I've done to prevent bird droppings and nesting on and around my solar panels.
As I am in Australia I bought these items from Bunnings

The ones I use might have been a different size but you get the idea

I'm with you,did same thing,works like a charm,same issues pigeons
A real pain in the ass.

Just got the rats of the sky on roof flipin mess cr--p every where. Thanks for the tip .

[@dukekrallis6727]

job well done buddy, that pigeon may have been stubborn but 10 min later u showed him. I couldn't tell if the tie rods u used were metal or plastic as plastic will deteriorate and break off. Also, get a Go Pro and attach it to your head next time u do vids..it will keep your hands free

[@snsesifushreder1148]

For future use and for safety reasons, might be a good idea to buy a GoPro Hero8 Black camera and also buy the GoPro headband accessory where the camera can fit near your forehead and you don't have to hold it film while on top of the roof

Pidgeons = Flying rats.
Thanks John- we haven’t had the problem, YET, but our neighbours have.

[@shannongibson325]

I did something very similar, new plans from Avasva helped me with this.

Can you post links in the description to your materials?

[@jdsolarandev2591]

Done.

I was so ready for this to turn into a parody...I was waiting for the ..."and so, my solution is *pulls out a shotgun*..."

[@jdsolarandev2591]

Well a gel-blaster is also helpful when you don't want to get up onto the roof.

Where can I buy the stuff that you used? Do you have an affiliate link cuz I would happily give you some money for curing my problem so cheaply. I have got 3 quotes and none under 1200 dollars

[@jdsolarandev2591]

No affiliate. Just at the local hardware store, they should sell guttering leaf guard and irrigation clips.

Should have sent that pigeon hiding under the panels to Darius for protein, as he has started eating animal meat again and stopped being vegan
