I heard this weird tapping sound around the outside of the house. This woodpecker is chipping away at mortar between my bricks. I don't want to shoot him (I'd use a bb gun it's a residential area) but how do I get rid of him? He's legit making some progress chipping away mortar in spots. I've never seen anything like this shit before. He's not even that high up. I chased him off yesterday but heard him again today watering the grass in my back yard.

I'd be more concerned about why he was:

but heard him again today watering the grass in my back yard.

I thought that too but there's nothing special about it. It's just clean hard mortar. There's no moss between bricks or anything even like that.

No ... why is he watering your lawn?

Anyway ... Link
