Well.. they aren't eating the house but they are pecking holes
in it. We have a white stucco'd home. We've fed the woodpeckers
suet each winter and enjoyed watching them. They dug out one
of the catalpa trees in the pasture but this is the first year they've
decided that they should dig in our house.

Any ideas of how to discourage them?

Why would they want to peck into a stucco home?
