Exterminator Nick Castro found the massive stash of acorns after being called to a home with a worm problem. "Bird was a bit of a hoarder," said Castro, who owns a California pest control service.
Nick Castro, who owns a California pest control service, found thousands of acorns in a wall from woodpeckers. A Santa Rosa pest control company says a woodpecker stored over 700 lbs of acorns in a California home.
The acorns, weighing 700 pounds, were discovered by Nick Castro, the owner of Nick's Extreme Pest Control, who was called to the home to investigate a worm problem. Upon cutting into the wall of the chimney, a flood of acorns spilled out and covered the floor.
"I've never seen anything like that," said Nick Castro. "The more acorns I pulled out, the more I found. It was like a never ending supply." It turns out the bird had been pecking holes in the chimney, putting the nuts inside but then losing them inside the wall cavity of the home in Santa Rosa.
For years, the woodpecker had been storing acorns away in the chimney, but it was only recently that the problem was discovered. The owner of the home called Nick's Extreme Pest Control when they noticed a worm problem.
After inspecting the chimney, the team from Nick's Extreme Pest Control discovered hundreds of acorns had been stored away. They then proceeded to cut into the wall, where a flood of acorns spilled out and covered the floor.
"It was a pretty incredible find," said Castro. "We had no idea that the woodpecker had been storing away such a large quantity of acorns. We never expected to find so many!"
The woodpecker's stash of acorns weighed 700 pounds, which is an impressive amount of nuts for one bird to store. It is unclear why the bird was collecting the acorns, but it is likely that the bird was planning on using it as food for the winter months.
Nick Castro said he has never seen anything like it before and was amazed by the large quantity of acorns. He believes the bird was a bit of a hoarder, storing away the acorns for some unknown purpose.
The woodpeckers' stash of acorns caused an uproar in the Santa Rosa area. Many locals were fascinated by the story and some even said that the woodpecker must have been a squirrel in disguise.
The woodpecker's stash of acorns has been removed from the home and the chimney has been fixed. The homeowners are grateful to Nick's Extreme Pest Control for discovering the hoard of acorns and for getting rid of the worm problem.
The acorns have been donated to a local animal rescue center, where they will be used to feed animals in need. The woodpecker's stash of acorns will live on, helping to save the lives of animals in need.
