                                                           There are a few ways to discourage woodpeckers from wreaking havoc on a home. Visual repellants such as, Irri-Tape, which is a foil tape, can distract the bird with the reflection and scare the birds away. There is also sound repellants, such as recorded motion-censored hawk screeching that will also scare the woodpeckers away.
