Electrical interference from bathroom below rooftop antenna

Our rooftop antenna is mounted on a tripod directly above our master bathroom. There is about 2' of attic space between the shingles and the bathroom ceiling.

Whenever my wife is using her hairdryer, Digital channel 39 pixilates to the point of being unwatchable, so my question is...

Is there some sort of shielding that I could put in the attic between the bathroom and the antenna to prevent the interference? Chicken wire? Aluminum foil?

Although the problem is reproducible 100% of the time that the hairdryer is on, realistically, it's actually infrequent that I am watching or recording something on that channel at that precise time. Therefore, my question is more academic than anything else. I'm just curious at to this group's thoughts, and I'm willing to try out any reasonable suggestions.
