I'm continually having issues with woodpeckers putting holes through the siding of my house. It is cedar plywood siding. The woodpeckers are putting holes through the chimney portion of the house (highest part of the house). My understanding is that Woodpeckers do this because there are bugs inside that they want to feed on? What product(s) do you have that might help deter the woodpeckers? If I patch a hole they go right back to the same spot.
Regards, T.

There has been a small woodpecker pecking at my great room window and we're afraid it's going to do some real damage. The window is quite large and thick but his bird is strong. Why is he doing this and what can we do to make it stop?

We've had a pilated woodpecker pecking at our house for the last week and it's getting to be a problem. At first it was cool seeing him peck but he quickly started to do some damage and now we just want him gone. I've seen him at several locations and I don't think there is a nest anywhere close by. Why is it attacking our house?

I have a woodpecker that's been pecking at my house for the past 2 weeks and I want it to go away. I've tried setting an inflatible owl up on the roof along with some moth balls but so far nothing has worked. What do you have that we can use?

There has been a flicker woodpecker pecking my house for the past week. I don't see any nest and he doesn't seem to be at the same location so I'm not sure what he's doing. Any ideas on what's going on and how I can get him to stop?

I need to control a wood pecker that is pecking my house. He comes around each morning and sometimes pecks at the soffits and other times on the gutters. Besides being loud and noisy, I'm afraid he'll do some damage. What do you suggest?

We have a metal light outside our porch and there is a woodpecker that keeps coming around every morning and is pecking at it. He's making a racket as well as dents in the fixture. What can I use to keep him away?

I have a woodpecker pecking my house. After years of dealing with this nuisance, I have been trying to eliminate what the woodpecker is after. I believe he's coming to my house for food in the form of boxelder bugs. The bugs are not as bad as they used to be but the woodpecker has a good memory and still comes to my house once in a while. I have heard there is some kind of wire mess or netting that contractor's use under stucco walls. If the woodpecker tries to search for food, he will hurt his beak on the wire and will remember to stay off this house. Do you know if this is a good option and if not, what would you suggest?
