One of this week’s jobs which requires an explanation. These panels came under attack from a squirrel. The solar panel installers installed plastic bird proofing measures. As you can see from the photos it didn’t stand a chance against a squirrel. They had gnawed through it in 8 places.
They then built a substantial nest. Luckily they hadn’t turned their attention to the panel cabling. We removed the inadequate plastic and replaced it with our 2.3mm black solar mesh along with stainless steel mesh clips.
Our full metal installs provide the ultimate protection against squirrels and birds.
