Shooting a Woodpecker.

[JasperFrank]

It is doing damage to my house. Should I just shoot it and kill it?

Had to do that once, it just wouldn't take good advice !

Most are protected species.

And when they start to destroy a house they are endangered!

You have to be smarter than the woodpecker...just shooting animals is taking the dumb way out...!

If you have a solution besides not using wood building products I’m all ears.

He's kinda hard to kill if I remember the cartoons correctly.

Have you tried the plastic owl?

The easiest non-kill solution is to staple up some bird netting so they can’t get to the area that they’re pecking on.
