For repairs that will match natural-wood siding, you’ll want to use stainable wood putty. If you intend to paint the patched area to match the siding, use pre-mixed bridging and patching compound, sold at paint stores and home improvement centers. Follow the label directions; most advise you to:
1) Remove any loose material from the hole, and brush it clean.
2) Apply the filler with a putty knife. Small holes require only one application; build up the patch with several layers (allowing each to dry) for large holes.
3) Sand the surface, and finish it to match the rest of the siding.
