The Shit Pit

ive got pidgeons nesting in my solar panels, right above my bedroom…

impromptu alarm system… 5am every morning, they get rowdy…

I had a quote a while back, for a clean / nest removal / pidgeon proofing…

$1900… for 13.3 kw of panels.

That was awhile ago…it’d be more expensive now…
I just couldn’t bring myself to pull the trigger on that…$ 2k for installing plastic…

I’d do it myself…but i promised myself after last time…never again…

Mind you , access is easy, and the roof is fairly flat… so its tempting…

Really? They’re pushing that conversion argument?

That’s full of shit. Really meant to scare the undeserning reader.

Well if that doesn’t work, I’m loading the Ute up. I might have to camp out for a few days though. :rofl:

I’ll get up there like a rat up a drain pipe. I’ve been swinging off 150ft high windmills(water not power) that are about to fall apart replacing pipes, dodgy as fuck. :laughing:

Got an air compressor? make a long pipe up with a hook neck to blow that shit out can work from the ground. I get up on mine with the blower vac and blast mine out, even on the big shed that is 5.5M roof height. Kinda get used to it when I worked with the shed builder putting it together and up.

Just take your time, don’t rush it, make sure where your footing is and all is good.

Says I that nearly slipped off an oily 650t 45ft high press. I was inches away from going splat on the concrete. Man did I grip my hands on like a mofo that night doing maintenance and by myself. Hands like vice grips saved the day again :+1:

Fkn oil slippery, bad.

Mate of mine was doing that exact thing for a pest control mob. No help anyway different state and he’s moved on to NT mines currently.

Sure you can’t gel em up? :rofl: :+1:

Next time I have a few mates over, I might get up …
Have someone to secure the ladder…

I reckon there will be a few kg’s of pigeon crap…!!

I’ve washed solar panels dozens of times, at my old place…

Everything is fine…until it isn’t…

And it can happen so quickly…

Doing some game hunting?

On a positive note, mums camera are going well…

Excellent night vision capabilities, in dark rooms.

And, I can yell at her in bed, through the camera speakers…!!

“Time to get up, Mum…!!”

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

China hasn’t invaded yet, so it’s safe to say they have gleamed no national secrets, through watching her prepare dinner…!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

I don’t think their tofu dreg navy could make the journey to Taiwan let alone Australia.

Gimme a super soaker. That’ll be enough to take down a carrier.

haha good to hear. Umm maybe not for your Mum LOL

Yea you’ve just got to not rush things, get your ladder planted correctly. Think about where you are going before you go there. Is it slippery, why I won’t use pressure washers or go on it when wet. And a 2nd spotter is always advised to hold the ladder if you are going high 5M plus like I do.

Back at work they brought the regs in we were not allowed to go above 1.1M without a harness on. We said to the boss, ok AND where shoult thy hook the fucker to :rofl:. Oh it doesn’t matter, just put the harness on to make it look good. That is no joke HAHA

I’ve never washed my solar panels. The rain that I have not had this year does that :rofl: Makes no difference unless an elephant took a dump on it. :rofl:

The feed in has not changed but I guess all the crap just gets blown off it. I’ll get up there one day and give it a once over when I check the gutters but was fine last time had to do nothing. Likely different setup where birds don’t sit on it and put bum spew everywhere those bastard pigeons. Arseholes shat on my chainsaw, I was not happy jan this morning about that. I think they are going to have to fuck off :rofl: :+1:

I saw it was going to be raining right around when you don’t want it December. I saw that from January this year. Far out, just do it myself sack those idiots and save some money.

Movement activated sprinklers work well for shooing away birds from nesting, which doesn’t have to be super expensive and technical, only a garden hose, a sprinkler from Bunnings and a bit of cheap electronics from Jaycar to put it all together! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::ok_hand:

Could rig something like this up to deal with them :rofl:

One of these fake snakes is going up on the roof…

Might give them something to think about… :laughing: and if it doesn’t work it’ll look cool in the garden.

Had visions of me this morning crawling on my belly commando style with my CYMA CQB blowin’ the shite out of these noisy bastards. If only… :rofl:

We can discuss hourly beer rate is negotiable.

Do I bring the 12G?

:rofl: :rofl:

Oh right, holes in house, bad :laughing:

Oh dear.

California. HAHA

@BME your mates getting it now from both sides Rep and Dems. United and assembled lawmakers. He fucked with the 1st amendment :face_with_peeking_eye:

" Look, look…that no talent loser kimmel deserved to be cancelled.
His hate speech , over Charlie Kirk, is horrible, causes violence, and divides the country…

Everyone knows its those radical left crazy loony deep state Democrats behind it all… i wish someone would smash their heads in, with a baseball bat…i’d give them pardons, and presidential medals…like those other Jan 6 hero’s …they were winners fighting for my rigged election result…those losers who got killed in the riots ( FREEDOM FIGHT) deserved what they got, fighting for the wrong side…"

Divisive hate speech…“it’s fine, when i do it to other people…but when it happens to me…Oh No…this is unnacceptable…”

If anyone seriously thinks, this is anything other than federal level (trump) censorship…they are kidding themselves…

Its the first thing all dictators do…silence the free press, and anyone who critises them… wake up America…!!

trump cant even handle a genuine question, from a aussie journo, without having a meltdown…" your hurting Australia badly now…"

Mental IQ of a 6 year old child…

Exerpt, from a news article…

. Compare and contrast Kimmel’s fate with that of Brian Kilmeade, a presenter on Trump’s beloved right-wing Fox TV. Kilmeade recently called for mentally ill and homeless people to be killed. As US comedian Paul Scheer observed: “So let me get this straight. Kimmel is off the air for his comments about the politicisation of an assassination – but this is totally fine.” Kilmead later apologised for his remarks.
