    I honestly have zero patience for any wood pecker.

    That is just it, by the time I get into position to scare it off I startle it and it flys away. And no matter how long I wait in concealment or how early I get to concealment it comes back after I give up waiting or won’t come until I get too cold and give waiting for it.

    I was thinking about one of these, but then I would have to buy a ladder tall enough to install it near where the pecker is doing the damage.

    How tall of a ladder? Can you hang it from the roof?

    It needs to be under the eave, about 6” of the wall. I need to invest in the ladder anyway to o the damage repair, so it is use a matter of time before I get one.

    Are those little giant type of ladders any good for approximately 18’ working height ? I was thinking of the one Harbor Frieght has on sale for $100.

    I've got a 15' and I love it and it gets used the most. However those folding ladders get heavy in a hurry when they start getting longer. I wouldn't have any concerns working on it.
