For your situation, you can make a "shade" for your sensor.
Depending on the angle of the sun, it could be a simple piece of plastic glued/taped to the side of the sensor, or a tube....like a plastic cap from a spray bottle with the top removed, attached to it over the eye.
Apply glue, and use tape to hold it in place.
Tape by itself will probably get hot from the sun and not hold for very long.
