Hi Wrenches, My prospect has an existing problem with birds (black birds, pigeons, and sparrows) nesting on their roof in every available nook and cranny. They are concerned about the birds soiling the modules. I have suggested putting a wire mesh around the array so that the birds can't get under the array and build nests. I am concerned about the nests that will be built along the top of the array on the wire mesh that I have so conveniently located for them. If there are too many nests then the air flow up and under the array could be compromised.
Any thoughts? Possibly spikes along the top of array to discourage landing, pictures of cats, or warning signs - Birds-High Voltage go further South Thanks!
