Solar panels create the perfect nesting location for birds, squirrels, and rodents. SolarGuard™ permanently closes the gap around your panels while maintaining proper airflow and system performance. No drilling into your solar panels. No damage to your roofing system.
The space between a solar array and the roof is warm, dry, shaded, and protected from predators — everything nesting wildlife is looking for.
Pigeons and starlings move in first. Squirrels and mice follow — and they don’t just nest, they chew. Wiring insulation, junction boxes, and roof membranes are all fair game once wildlife settles beneath an array.
Nesting material packed under panels, chewed wiring and fire hazards, acidic droppings on glass and hardware, blocked drainage, roof damage, and reduced system output.
Plastic netting sags, zip ties fail in UV and frost, and scare devices stop working the day the birds get used to them. Worse, drilling into panels or racking can void your solar warranty.
SolarGuard closes the full perimeter of the array with a purpose-built wildlife barrier secured by a non-invasive mounting system — no drilling into panels, racking, or roofing.
The system maintains the airflow and drainage your array needs. If anything, output improves — droppings, debris, and blocked drainage are what degrade it.
We inspect every panel edge, the roof surface, and the wiring runs for wildlife activity and existing damage.
Existing nests, droppings, and debris are cleared from beneath the panels before the barrier goes on.
The premium exclusion barrier is fitted around the full perimeter of the array, closing the gap wildlife uses.
The barrier is secured with a mounting system that never drills into panels, racking, or roofing.
We verify the barrier is continuous, airflow and drainage are preserved, and the array is fully protected.
Protection for the array — without touching a drill to it.
Keeps nesting wildlife away from one of the most valuable systems on your home.
Chewed wiring under an array is a real fire risk — the barrier keeps rodents away from it entirely.
Non-invasive mounting means no drilling into panels or racking, so your solar warranty stays intact.
The system maintains the ventilation and drainage your array needs to perform.
No penetrations of the roofing system — shingles and membranes stay intact.
SolarGuard installations are backed by Eco Haven’s workmanship warranty.
Like any engineered building product, SolarGuard is defined by its materials and installation method — not by a service visit.
Poison-free protection built into the building — and backed by our guarantee. Serving Upstate NY & Southwest VT.
No. SolarGuard uses a non-invasive mounting system that never drills into your panels, racking, or roofing — the installation leaves your solar equipment exactly as the installer left it.
No. The system is designed to maintain the airflow and drainage your array needs. If anything, performance improves — droppings, nesting debris, and blocked drainage are what degrade output.
Removing existing nesting material is part of every installation. The barrier goes on only after the space beneath the array is cleared.
No. The mounting system attaches without penetrating the roofing system, so shingles and membranes stay intact.
SolarGuard uses a premium wildlife barrier designed for chewing rodents — a very different product from the plastic netting most DIY kits rely on.
