About Woodpecker Damage Control
Woodpecker Damage Control Done Right
Woodpeckers drum on siding, gutters and fascia to find insects, to mark territory or to make nest cavities. The holes let moisture in and invite insects.
We find out why they are there, install deterrents and repair holes, and treat the insects that attracted them. Woodpeckers are protected, so we use deterrence rather than harm.
Humane methods, careful sealing and cleanup. Every job includes an inspection first.
