Critter Guard Installation for Solar Panels in Louisville, CO
Give Your Solar Investment the Edge It Needs
It starts quietly—a rustle, a shadow on the roof, maybe a squirrel slipping under the edge of your solar array. You barely notice it. Weeks go by. Then your system shuts down.
What happened?
A hidden threat found a new home: beneath your panels. Safe from predators and the weather, squirrels and birds chew wires, build nests, and create chaos under your investment. It doesn’t take long for the damage to surface—and by then, it’s already costly.
At
OGS Electric, we’ve seen it all. And we’ve designed a better way to protect your system. We designed our system to be sleek, durable, and supported by science, not guesswork.

The Problem: A Hidden Threat to Your Solar Panels
Squirrels, Birds, and Costly Repairs
What starts as cozy shelter for a critter becomes a serious liability:
Chewed wiring can cause ground faults or system failure.
Fire risks from exposed conductors.
Performance loss and expensive service calls.
Voided warranties from unauthorized animal damage.
Usually, this damage stems from
improper or low-quality critter guard installs—loose mesh, poorly secured clips, or gaps at the corners give animals easy access.
Our Secret Weapon: Engineered Protection That Works
We don’t just install mesh—we engineer a fortress.
C-Shaped Mesh for Structural Strength
Using the Slicktools AG Bender 7™, we bend the wire mesh into a C-shaped form, increasing its stiffness and resistance to deformation.
This is based on real structural mechanics: shaping materials to increase rigidity, just like an I-beam in construction. The result? The result is a barrier that is clean, rigid, and nearly impossible for pests to penetrate.
Reinforced Seams With No Weak Spots
We secure every seam using
- CritterBlok™ Solar Animal Guard Clips
- Black Galvanized Hog Rings
- Multi-point fastening techniques
This eliminates sagging, gaps, and weak corners—the most common failure points in other systems.
What Makes Our Critter Guard Different?

- Sits flush with the solar array

Do You Need a Critter Guard? Look for These Signs:
- Squirrel or bird activity near your panels
- Inverter errors with no clear cause
- Debris buildup or rustling sounds
- Unexpected performance drops on your monitoring app
- Your installer never offered you CritterGuard protection.
If you installed your system more than a year ago without protection, it's time to take action.
