WHY CONTROL WOODPECKERS?
Woodpeckers may be fascinating, but their pecking can damage siding, eaves, and roofs, leading to costly repairs. They also attract parasites and pests, posing risks to your home’s safety and structure.
At Bobcat Wildlife & Pest Management, we provide humane woodpecker removal in Des Moines, IA, ensuring your home stays protected and pest-free. Here’s why fast action matters:
1. Home Vulnerability to Pests
Woodpecker damage creates entry points for insects, rodents, and bats, increasing the risk of infestations. Our expert removal services seal off vulnerabilities, keeping unwanted pests out.
2. Structural Damage Prevention
Repeated pecking weakens exterior surfaces, leading to moisture damage, insulation issues, and long-term deterioration. Stopping woodpeckers early helps prevent costly structural repairs.
3. Noise & Property Disturbance
Woodpecker drumming is loud and persistent, disrupting your home’s peace. Their damage also lowers curb appeal, making early removal essential for maintaining home value and comfort.

HOW TO SPOT WOODPECKER ACTIVITY

Woodpeckers can be found in a variety of settings, and identifying signs of their activity is crucial for timely intervention. Keep an eye out for these indicators:
1. Distinctive Sounds
Listen for the unmistakable tapping or drumming of woodpeckers as they peck at wood surfaces, often a sign they’re nearby or have established a nesting area.
2. Visible Damage
Look for holes or damage on wooden structures, siding, or trees around your property, which can indicate woodpecker nesting or feeding sites.
3. Droppings and Debris
Notice droppings or wood shavings beneath areas of frequent woodpecker activity, signaling their presence and potential nesting spots.
