Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is bird proofing harmful to birds?
A: Not at all! Our methods simply deter birds without causing harm. We use physical barriers that prevent birds from landing or nesting in specific areas.
Q: How long does bird proofing last?
A: Most of our installations last 5-10 years with minimal maintenance, depending on the system you choose.
Q: Do you handle protected bird species?
A: Absolutely! We work within legal guidelines for all bird species, using appropriate methods for protected species.
Q: Can birds really damage solar panels?
A: Yes, they can! Bird droppings reduce efficiency significantly, and nesting materials can create serious fire hazards under panels.
