Solar panels create a warm, sheltered space that’s ideal for birds, pigeons, squirrels, and other critters — but that “cozy gap” under your panels can quickly turn into a costly headache if left unprotected. At Sun Elevated, our Residential Pest Exclusion service protects your solar investment, roof, and home environment by permanently blocking pests from nesting beneath your panels.
The best cleanup service in the industry, removing all traces of pests from your roof, gutters, under your solar array, and surrounding property
Thorough solar panel cleaning service to clean the surface of your panels
Custom-made PVC-dipped galvanized steel critter guard installation on your solar system, installed professionally to honor your solar system warranty

A lifetime warranty
We start by safely removing all nests, feces, and debris from under your panels, gutters, and roof surface using professional solar cleaning and soft washing techniques.
We install a PVC-dipped galvanized steel mesh barrier around your panels. This durable pest exclusion system is designed specifically for solar arrays and prevents critters from returning.
We finish the cleanup by cleaning the solar panels to remove all residual feces and help optimize energy capture from your solar panels.
All affected areas — including patios and yard spaces — are disinfected with family- and pet-safe products to eliminate bacteria and odors
We inspect and ensure the barrier remains secure. Optional seasonal inspections are available through our cleaning subscriptions to keep your system pest-free and running at optimal efficiency year-round.
Sun Elevated’s Residential Pest Exclusion not only protects your solar performance — it protects your roof, energy output, and health. When done correctly, pest exclusion provides a long-lasting solution that keeps critters out and sunlight in.
Bird and pigeon feces are dangerous to your family and pets’ health. Pigeon feces carry over 60 diseases, the highest number of diseases compared to any other bird species, some of which can be transmitted to humans. Unlike most other birds, pigeons nest in their own feces, which attracts mites and increases the transmittance of other diseases.
Not only is pigeon feces a danger to your family, but it’s a danger to your home. Pigeon feces is acidic enough to eat through roofing materials & solar wiring, will permanently stain your shingles, & damage your gutters due to clogging and improper water drainage.
The only way to truly protect yourself from a pigeon infestation is to install a barrier around the exterior of your solar panels.
Our Pest Exclusion installation includes a Lifetime Warranty on materials and workmanship. If the guard ever becomes defective or detached, contact us and we will repair or replace it at no cost.
Guards can occasionally come loose due to wildlife interference or winter conditions. Snow and ice sliding around and beneath solar panels can create pressure on the guard system, causing clips to release and sections to detach.
If a gap of approximately 2 inches or more opens, birds may regain access beneath the panels. It is important to notify us immediately if you notice any separation so we can secure the guard before a new nesting issue occurs.
If nesting resumes due to a delay in reporting, we will repair the guard under warranty; however, any required cleanup would be billed separately based on severity and time involved.
Customers enrolled in our Biannual or Triannual Solar Panel Cleaning plans receive an additional Cleanup Warranty on their Pest Exclusion system.
Because we are on your roof every six months to clean your panels and inspect the exclusion, we extend coverage to include cleanup services for as long as you remain on an active cleaning subscription.
As long as your cleaning plan stays active, any necessary pest cleanup related to your exclusion system is covered. That means ongoing protection and true peace of mind without unexpected cleanup costs.
