I had one on my shed last year. I did not know how to get rid of him, but at least he is not here this year

We have one living in a tree in our yard. I love how it sounds, but I can imagine it would be a pain to have one that is taping on your house. Is it living in your roof by any chance? If so, you could blocking up the opening and see if it goes elsewhere.

Re: Anyone have a woodpecker on their house?

If they are pecking at the house it's because they are trying to get at bugs that are in the siding or shingles. Call an exterminator and see if they can treat the area. It may be a natural warning that you've got bugs attacking the house that need to be dealt with.

Was the title that funny? Now that you mention it I'm laughing too!

Anyway, I'm going to check out birdbusters.com - pretty funny name too. And I think we do need to call an exterminator to make sure we don't have bugs! Uuuugh - thanks girls!
