Help! Woodpecker! - March 12th, 2005 at 09:13 AM
I know this probably isn't exactly the right place to ask but I don't know where else to go...
I have a woodpecker problem. Every morning, shortly before I'm "supposed" to be getting up (around 10:30AM because of my work schedule), I hear what sounds like a woodpecker having a go at my roof.
At first I thought I was dreaming it because I'd hear it and wake up and never hear it again. But my girlfriend says that she's heard it too, so it's not just me.
I've looked around and I can't see any damage from the outside, but then I have no idea where the little [BLEEP] is even working.
I know he's not attacking the walls or the windows because my house is brick.
What do you guys suggest? Any experience with repelling a woodpecker? I'm just afraid he's going to destroy my roof. I'm also somewhat concerned that this may mean I've got a bug problem...but surely the woodpecker is accelerating any problem that might be there...
Thanks!
