WOODPECKER REMOVAL CALGARY
CALGARY WOODPECKER CONTROL
This family of birds is protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act. They are classified as “migratory insectivorous birds”. Woodpeckers are 18 to 38 cm in length. Black and white markings are common and most males have some red on their heads. They all have stout pointed beaks and long tongues, well suited to their behaviour of drilling holes in trees. These birds cannot be killed or their eggs and nests destroyed. Some control might be achieved with frightening devices such as flaps of material hung from the branches of the damaged trees. Nesting might be discouraged by blocking the entrance to their nests before the birds arrive in the spring. The nests are usually in holes in dead heartwood of dead or living trees. The entrance holes are approximately 3 to 4 cm in diameter.
PROBLEMS DUE TO WOODPECKER
Woodpecker damages the siding of house and also encourages infestation of insects and other wildlife by providing an entry point into the structure. These same avenues allow rainwater to invade the structure, which can lead to mold growth and other damaging and hazardous conditions. Wood is not the only building material at risk of attack by woodpeckers. The birds may even pierce plumbing and electrical lines behind a house siding.
