Sapsucker Damage
A common cause of tree damage in backyards and small woodlands is from sapsuckers, which are a species of woodpecker.
Unlike other woodpeckers, sapsuckers are actually drilling for the tree sap, not for insects living in the tree. However, sapsucker damage may attract opportunistic damaging insects, which the sapsucker may then subsequently feed on.
