WoodPecker Damage
Woodpeckers don’t really pose any health concerns but they’re notorious for creating massive amounts of visible damage in wood siding, fascia, and chimneys. Natural wood board replacement and installation is also very expensive. The woodpeckers create holes for a variety of reasons whether it’s looking for termites to eat, putting pecks in the wood to asset their territory, or creating a nest for the spring. Whatever the reason the damage created is very noticeable, unsightly, and costly to repair.
Commonly Asked Questions
does a woodpecker on my house mean I have termites?
Woodpeckers peck whenever they are looking for food, building a nest, or trying to attract a mate. So the reason why a woodpecker is pounding on your house does not mean that termites are a threat to your house. However, if you see a lot of small holes around the siding of your house, it may indicate that you have an insect problem that may need to be checked out.
how do I know if i have a woodpecker on my property?
The loud drumming noise which sounds like a rapid knocking noise is a very good indication. The small holes they create in trees or around your house would also indicate that woodpeckers are around your house.
