Pennsylvania is a bird watcher’s haven, with more than 400 species of birds calling it home, including woodpeckers. While the birds are beautiful to observe from afar, they can be quite the nuisance if they chose to nest within your Allison Park home or business. In addition to their loud and constant pecking, woodpeckers can cause a significant amount of damage by drilling into the wooden structures of your property. Despite their annoyance, it’s best to not try and remove nuisance birds on your own. Instead, rely on the bird removal experts at Critter Control® of Pittsburgh.
Damages Caused by Woodpeckers
Just because woodpeckers are little doesn’t mean they can’t be a big problem. Unwanted issues that woodpeckers can bring to your home or business include:
- Property Damage: Woodpeckers are known to cause serious property damage, especially to wooden buildings. This critter gets its name because it drills into wood in search of food or to build a nesting site. Unfortunately, this often results in damage to your Allison Park home or business. Woodpeckers will often target eaves, trim boards, and the sides of buildings. They’ll also peck at surrounding trees and foliage. Woodpecker holes can vary in size, but they all will weaken the structural integrity of your trees and home.
- Environmental Risks: Woodpecker activity can have a negative effect on the health of your yard. A woodpecker’s drilling can leave trees susceptible to pests, infection, disease and even death, thereby attracting more nuisance pests to your property.
- Noise: While woodpeckers don’t pose a physical threat to humans, they can still be an annoyance. Their frequent pecking is often very loud and obnoxious, especially if they are nesting right outside your window.
If you suspect woodpeckers have made a home on your property, it’s time to call Critter Control® of Pittsburgh for fast and efficient woodpecker removal services. The sooner nuisance birds are professionally removed from your property, the quicker you can get back to a peaceful home.
