If it's just at one or two spots, tacking a chunk of sheet metal over
the damage has worked for me.



I had a bird that was pecking at the steel swingset. It also was
pecking at the steel cap on the chimney.


The motivation is different. The ones pecking on the siding are trying to make a
home, not noise. If they can't make a hole, they go elsewhere.
