Solar Panel Critter Guard Installation in Auburndale, FL

Older lakefront homes near Lake Ariana and newer subdivisions toward Berkley both see squirrels and the occasional bird looking for shelter under an array. We seal the gap with black PVC-coated mesh.

Why Auburndale homes need this service

  • Mesh fastened to the module frame without penetrating the roof
  • Nesting material removed and the area cleared before installation
  • Suited to both older downtown shingle roofs and newer builds

Local conditions we work around

  • Twin-lake mineral mist

    Homes near both Lake Ariana and Lake Myrtle pick up a light mineral film most mornings, similar to Winter Haven but on a smaller scale given Auburndale's more modest lake frontage.

  • US-92 corridor road film

    The highway connecting Lakeland and Winter Haven carries steady commuter and freight traffic, leaving a road film on homes closest to the corridor.

  • Sports complex event dust

    The Lake Myrtle sports complex draws heavy seasonal traffic for tournaments, kicking up extra dust on nearby homes during peak event weekends.

Older shingle homes cluster around Lake Ariana and downtown, with newer architectural shingle subdivisions built along the US-92 growth corridor toward Berkley. Pitches are generally moderate and roofs are easy to access from the ground.

What we install

Rigid galvanized steel mesh with a black powder-coat finish, sized to the exact perimeter of your array so it reads as part of the system rather than a bolt-on cage. The mesh is secured with stainless steel clips that grip the panel frame directly. Nothing is drilled into your roof and no penetrations are created that could later leak.

Clean-out comes first

Guarding an occupied array just traps the problem inside. Every install starts with removing nests, droppings and debris from under the modules, sanitising the deck area, and checking for chewed conductors or damaged conduit while we have the access.
