PROLEE Solar Panel Bird Guard with 100 Fastener Clips, 6 Inch x 100 FT Critter Guard for Solar Panels, 1/2 Inch PVC-Coated Galvanized Wire Mesh with Cable Cutter, Black

Very impressed with this product! The wire bird guard is easy to cut with the provided wire cutters, and the wire can be bent reasonably easy with your hands (I didn't need protective gloves). The fastener clips work well to hold the bird guard in place. Other recommendations worked well: pre-cut the wire pieces & assemble the fastener clips before going on your roof. I have a Spanish tile roof, so I had to do a lot of cutting and shaping around my solar panels to fit the tile undulations. I was a bit slow, but the final product worked well - no more birds!

I have a great solar setup, but unfortunately a pigeon family moved in, and made a mess and a racket. I think anyone that has solar or is considering solar should install these critter guards. I have two solar arrays totaling 30 panels (about 30"x71" each panel) and ordered two of these. I hired a professional roof guy who was willing to install these, but I helped him out and we both learned a lot. About the mesh: it's very lightweight, polymer coated metal wire mesh. It is easy to work with, but we decided to cut them into 4-foot sections and make sure they were flat, so he wouldn't have to fight with a coiled up roll of mesh that wanted to unwind. This worked out well, and made it easier to move around the supplies. If you are to do this, I would recommend cutting into about 4-foot sections, or custom cut each length for the size needed. Do not take the coiled 150-foot section on the roof with you and try to measure and cut on the roof. The J-hooks worked well and there was enough in the package to complete the installation. I ended up with one 4-foot section left. It is very tedious, and requires you to snip/trim the mesh to go around corners and around brackets. Overall, the installation took about 6 hours, and my roof guy was spent. The installation looks great and will prevent further infestation under my solar panesl

This product is awesome! Great job filling up the gap between my roof and the solar panels. Not too hard to install. Once you install the first 10-12 ft, then it gets a lot easier. Most importantly, no more squirrels under the solar panels!

My husband said it was easy to install. We have a huge pigeon problem. So far the pigeons have not been able to get under the solar but are camped out on top of the solar now. Hoping they will eventually find another place. I’ve bought two so far and will need to another set. I did notice that on the first set, the tools provided were already used. The pliers had finger prints on them and seemed dirty. Not sure if it was previously returned item of not.

I have 29 panels. Pigeons were nesting under them and waking us up at 5 am. It was a lot of work to run this around all the panels but worth it. Birds moved to the neighbors, I think, and have not been back. The provided clips are a bit hard to work with but are the standard for attaching guards and probably cant be improved. Overall, good investment.

We had a problem with pigeons nesting under our solar panels. Apparently, this is a problem nationwide. We had to unfortunately clear out the nests and put this around the panels. Went up fast and cleanly, zip tied the corners and trimmed the posts that attach to the panels (this was a cosmetic decision). We hired someone to do it for us as we are seniors and no more getting on the roof for us! The person installing is a seasoned builder, took him 2.5 hrs for 2 sets of panels on a one story home.

Very easy to install, time-consuming being on the roof of the house but easy. The clips are pretty strong and sturdy. Once they are locked in it will, it did not back off. I'm happy with this product, it blends right in with my panels. I have seen the squirrels go up on the roof after installing the critter guard and they try to get in under the panels but they had no luck. What made me get this products was because not only that it was easy to install but I see the benefit in keeping the squirrels out and its UV and anti-rust proof. The squirrels already ate through four of my panel cables. I had the panels repaired and I install the critter guard myself and this was an easy way to protect my investment.

Works exactly as intended, I suggest assembling all your fasteners before beginning to save time. Also a pair of tin snips makes it much easier to cut the mesh than using the small pair of snips it comes with (they do work just fine it just takes a bit longer to cut pieces). Good quality material that has already held up for over a month with snow etc on the roof too.

Excellent!

I have been buying this mesh for our company's solar projects for a while now. The mesh is of good quality as are the clips The cutters actually work well.

Der Vogelschutz ist ok und montiert. Die Lieferung war gut verpackt.
