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>
