Once again Woodpeckers are destroying our cedar sided house. Once they peck their way into the siding other birds rush in to get warm. We find insulation puffing around. If we can reach the holes, we fill them but many are above the reach of our ladders thus initiating handyman help and fees.
I have fake woodpeckers around the house to deter and lots of suet but it still doesn't beat me running outside in my pj's with a pellet gun to fire away. The pecking resounds especially when a large fellow gets going. Right now I'm looking at my feeders that are covered with red winged blackbirds, cardinals and yes, woodpeckers.
