A lovely September Installer of the Month entry, from Algoclear Exterior Cleaning Services .
This summer, the team completed a substantial bird proofing project at a local school where pigeons had gained access beneath the solar panels and begun nesting. They were also perching along the gutter edges, leaving droppings and mess on the path below.
AlgoClear first ensured the solar panel array was clear underneath before fitting an impressive 80 metres of Defender Jaws® around the full solar panel perimeter to prevent the pigeons from getting back underneath. The Jaws simply lock onto 30mm or 35mm with no need for any additional silicone adhesive or clips, creating a strong UV stabilised barrier which will last for years.
They also installed 90 metres of Defender Wide Plastic Spikes along the gutters to stop birds perching above the paths, a favourite perching point for pigeons. The birds cause slippery, hazardous and unhealthy piles of droppings on the paths and play areas, not ideal for a school. As clips couldn’t be used in this situation, they used the cross-shaped holes in the Defender base to securely screw the strips into position.
The project was finished with a thorough solar panel clean and a clean of the path below, leaving the school looking much cleaner and properly protected.
Thank you to AlgoClear Exterior Cleaning Services for choosing Defender Bird Spikes and for sharing this excellent installation with us.
