My neighborhood in Colorado has a serious woodpecker problem. The only way I know of to get rid of them is to stucco your house, which is what I eventually did. It worked perfectly.

What do you plan to do about the Stucco Peckers?

Instead I reclad the affected area with siding made from a concrete / fiber blend that matched existing siding. Problem solved since they could not penetrate it. Also installed perch proofing in key areas, which is a series of wire spikes. C2K
