Bon Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I guess Mr Woodpecker wanted to make sure we cut the tree down this year. The holes weren't there last night. Twitter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petee Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 YOu may want to put some wire over the hole till you cut it down or you may find a family of something in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hipower Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 When I find damage like that around our house it usually comes from the wee little woodpeckers, not the big red-headed ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 They did a number on my deck last year. I ended up hanging some foil pie plates and that scared them off. But still have the holes in my joists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to check for rot in your deck as they are usually hearing insects in the wood when they make holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have all kinds of peckers here. Last year the downey was pecking on the light pole, found out that is how they call their mate. His pecker had to really hurt!! dyna99 and hipower 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already had to replace some pieces of cedar siding because they hammered holes clear through it and were planning to nest inside the wall.

junk Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Dont cut it down,,Apple trees can take a lot of damage and still produce apples. If we have a good year for apples,,,Im thinking we will have a good year for roadkill...i.e. Elk, Deer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bon Posted May 11, 2016 Author Share Posted May 11, 2016 We have been planning on cutting it down for a few years now. Hubby wants to put a garage there maybe. That means the tree is in the way, plus it is dying more & more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
