Woodpecker Damage

Why didn't you make it out of a more durable material?

My house? Wood is pretty normal here on the East coast, some brick and stucco here and there, but wood is the norm.

What were you thinking, kevlar?

Do what any Marine would do and here is the link: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/70280-55.html
If you are worried about the noise buy 22shorts they sound like a pelet gun when they are fired you just have to shoot them one at a time because the shorts don't have enough explosion to cycle the next round in a semi..

You really don't pay attention much before you post, do you. You just say what you want, I get it. I have a .22 -- pay attention. You even quoted me saying that.

A play on words...I took woodpecker and made it into two words..wood pecker, thus insinuating that you may have a wooden you know what....sorry...bad joke!

I have a friend that has a woodpecker land on his chimney cap occasionally and peck away for about 10 minutes. Makes a nice machine gun kind of sound.

So is the gas soaked rag doing the job? If not get your BB gun out and give the thing a shot in the ass everytime you see it. It'll get tired of being stung and you won't get in any trouble with the Game Commision. Spring loaded BB gun won't have enough power to hurt it and if you have one of the pump BB guns just give it 2 pumps.

So far, it actually is. I'm sure the gas has dried, but the smell is working. Gotta half day today, so I'm going to the range after work, going to confirm my zero. Just in case.
