Woodpeckers vs game cameras

[Bort]

The woodpeckers at my place have expensive tastes. All of my cheap cameras go unharmed, but the second I put out a cell camera, those peckers are all over it!!!!

Any luck, AC?

They suck.

It's not only the woodpeckers, I got red cardinals on camera pecking the heck out of one.

all traps had been set off, but no sign of success. I reset them. I also didn't have anymore cameras damaged this time.

Thought I would update this thread. I saw on another thread where someone lost two cameras to woodpeckers. I will just say I haven’t had any issue with woodpeckers anymore

Ha! I never saw the traps any success? Whats crazy is I have lost probably a half a dozen cameras over the years to them but not one pic.

Yes they were successful. I even caught a deer in one lol. He stuck his nose where it didn’t belong. The deer broke my trap. I had some good close ups of him on my camera though


I had several that were tripped but no bird. Upon further inspection, it appears they were easy prey for coons, and other animals to pick off the traps. Feathers and feet on the ground below told that story.

I’d lost several cameras to those suckers, but not anymore!

piece of 1/16" clear polycarbonate will fix you up in the future.

Attach glue traps to the camera base. That way you can catch him and have a talk with him. Or her. Might be a girl woodpecker.

Most of my cameras have been hit over the years also, but they continue to operate just fine. I use Browning, Multrie and Stealth cameras and none of these have been exempt from lens peckers.
