Deer can cross your front yard, hummingbirds in your trees, squirrels scamper across your driveway or deck and woodpeckers. Woodpeckers are one of the reasons you have to replace the wood on your home at times. replacementA single woodpecker may use your home to stake his territory, look for insects or use the stucco and wood material from your home for nesting. Hanging a shiny object to scare the woodpecker is one way to rid your home of this invader.<\/p>\n
This wood replacement will ensure that more insects don\u2019t discover the holes for nesting or that wood bees don\u2019t see it as a place to drill their own homes to lay eggs, which attracts more woodpeckers!<\/p>\n
Wood may also need to be replaced if your gutters have not been regularly cleaned. Water dripping over the gutter onto the face of the wood causes more deterioration than necessary.<\/p>\n
Wood replacement may also be necessary if the flashing on your siding was not properly installed.<\/p>\n
