Previous Message There are currently no commercially available, fully autonomous drones designed to circle residential homes and scare away woodpeckers. While autonomous bird-hazing drones exist for commercial agriculture and large industrial roofs, consumer options for houses are restricted by several practical and legal barriers: Check out this sonic deterrent since the other stuff no worky https://www.amazon.com/stores/Bird-X/page/0772A976-1378-4412-BBDC-F38CE5609A7E Previous Message Not that kind. We have had off and on over the years a woody woodpecker that is putting holes in our trim on the house. Have tried everything with ugly fake owls, shinny tape, nasty smelling stuff and glittery hanging twirly things to keep the bastards away....nothing seems to work. We have replaced the trim and repainted and they come back. Any one had this issue and any ideas? Other than shooting them... Neighbor has same issue.

we have a 2 story and the pecker is pecking towards the roof line. Somehow need to hang it off the roof so it dangles by the area. Previous Message Previous Message Not that kind.

Previous Message My understanding with peckers is they're going after food. That's what it was for us. I had one right next to my office window. There was some decay that was fostering grubs or something... and that's what the peckers were actually going after.
