Calling your local exterminator at the first sign of a wild animal problem might be tempting. But pest control isn’t the same as wildlife removal, and you’ll want to stick with a wildlife removal pro for this job. Pest control exterminators treat for insect removal and may even use poisonous sprays. Wildlife removal companies only use poison as a last resort and always try humane methods first—taking special care not to harm wild animals.

High-frequency bird repellent devices are effective at driving away birds, which is their intended purpose. However, these devices also tend to have unintended negative consequences. For example, if you or your neighbors own pets, the high-pitched noise emitted by these electronic devices will cause them distress and may even make them aggressive.

Strong scents like peppermint, rosemary, lavender, citronella, and others can repel woodpeckers—as pungent smells can overpower their senses. For that reason, you might consider making a homemade spray with one or a combination of these scents to spritz around areas of your home where woodpeckers frequent.
