Q: Do predator decoys work to keep birds away?

• <div><p>Yes, predator decoys work to keep birds away, at least temporarily. However, if the decoy remains motionless in the same spot for a long enough time, the birds will eventually wise up and realize it's a fake. Keep changing the location of the predator decoy to ensure that the birds keep their guard up and maintain their distance.</p></div>

Q: What size dog is too big for a hawk?

• <div><p>Hawk attacks on pets are rare, and they won&rsquo;t target animals that outweigh them. Hawks typically weigh between one and three pounds. That means you don&rsquo;t need to worry if you have a Labrador Retriever or French Bulldog. However, small cats and toy breed dogs, like Chihuahuas, are at risk. Pet attacks are more likely in winter when food is scarce or in the early summer when inexperienced young hawks are honing their hunting skills.</p></div>

Q: How can I keep bats out of my house?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;ve had a prior bat infestation or simply want to avoid having bats invade your home in the first place, there are a few steps you can take without the need for a pro. </p><ul><li><p><b>Seal entry points</b>, such as where your chimney meets your house, or other gaps or holes exist.</p></li><li><p><b>Use bat deterrents</b> like bright lights or ultrasonic devices to force them away from your home. </p></li><li><p><b>Reduce bat attractions</b> like standing water and bird nectar feeders inviting bats into your yard. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Do wind chimes keep woodpeckers away?

• <div><p>Hanging wind chimes or motion-activated speakers near your home may be an effective way to deter woodpeckers, as sudden movement and sound often scare birds away. You could also try using reflective decorative items such as pinwheels or mirrors or placing decoys of large predatory birds in your yard. If these measures don&rsquo;t deter the woodpeckers, you may need the help of a bird removal pro.</p></div>

Q: Does a woodpecker on the house always mean termites?

• <div><p>Woodpeckers usually feed on homes when there is a food source present, and termites are one possible source. However, the presence of woodpeckers doesn&rsquo;t necessarily mean there are termites. They may also be feeding on more harmless insects like ants or spiders. If woodpeckers seem drawn to one particular part of your home&rsquo;s siding, it might be worth hiring a termite inspector to check for the presence of these pesky critters.</p></div>
