Among pigeon deterrent systems, Isidoro® System proves to be the most effective for pigeon removal from photovoltaic panels, with more than 15,000 photovoltaic systems protected without complaint!

1. Our fastening system is specifically designed to be mounted on the profiles of all solar panels. This means you won’t have to drill holes in the solar panel or use silicone glues and double-sided adhesives, which in turn will void your system’s warranty.
2. The comb of our bird blocker, fits naturally to any type of tile without making additional custom cuts (e.g., bird net).
3. The Isidoro® system, unlike other devices available on the market (e.g., gutter sweepers), allows proper rainwater runoff and promotes natural ventilation of the solar panels, which is essential for their proper cooling.

Our materials of the highest quality, allow us to guarantee our product for up to 25 years for the TOP SERIES and up to 10 years for the BASIC SERIES.

Pigeons are attracted to solar panels for several reasons:

1. Shelter and protection: Solar panels installed on the roofs of houses or buildings create protected and sheltered spaces beneath them, providing an ideal place for pigeons to nest and shelter from the weather and predators.
2. Warmth: Solar panels absorb and retain heat, which makes them warm and cozy places for pigeons, especially during the colder months. Pigeons, like many other birds, seek warm environments for comfort and to aid in egg hatching.
3. Safety: Elevated structures such as roofs with solar panels offer pigeons a safe vantage point from which they can keep an eye out for predators and other threats.
4. Easy access to food: Being in an elevated location, pigeons can easily observe and access nearby food sources. Although the solar panels themselves do not provide food, their location can facilitate pigeons’ access to food in urban or residential areas.
5. Availability of space: Solar panels, especially when installed in large numbers, provide ample space for pigeons to congregate and nest, making these areas especially attractive.

Installing a bird barrier on solar panels is an important preventive measure for several reasons:

1. Panel protection: Birds, particularly pigeons, can cause damage to solar panel cables and components. By chewing on cables or moving components to build nests, they can compromise the integrity and operation of the system. Preventing birds from nesting in solar panel systems prevents potential risks of short circuits or fires due to damage to electrical cables or accumulation of flammable material such as branches and leaves carried by birds.
2. Maintaining energy efficiency: Bird droppings are known to be acidic and can damage the surface of solar panels, significantly reducing their efficiency. A barrier prevents birds from roosting and nesting on the panels, minimizing the risk of droppings accumulation.
3. Reduced maintenance costs: The presence of birds can lead to increased maintenance costs due to the need to frequently clean up droppings and repair any damage to panels or wiring. Installing bird barriers can significantly reduce these costs.
4. Prevention of health problems: Bird droppings can be vectors of diseases, such as cryptococcosis, which can pose a risk to human health. By preventing the accumulation of droppings around solar panels, you reduce the risk of health problems for house inhabitants or maintenance personnel.
5. Aesthetic preservation: Nests and droppings can disfigure the appearance of solar installations and the structures on which they are installed. Bird barriers help maintain a clean and professional appearance of the solar installation.

For these reasons, installing a bird barrier is considered an effective practice to protect the investment in solar panels and ensure their optimal operation in the long term.

Our bird barrier is designed to protect solar panels while avoiding injuring animals. The goal is to prevent birds from entering without causing them harm. Non-contact disruption: physically prevents birds from landing or nesting in areas protected by solar panels without actually trapping or injuring them. This means that birds can look elsewhere for a safe place to rest or nest without harming the ecosystem.

• Our system is purely mechanical: no electrical energy is required as it does not generate ultrasound or electricity
• The deterrent comb is not a needle deterrent, which are often ineffective and dangerous to birds.
