Scimitar-billed Woodcreeper is native to a variety of woodlands and scrublands, typically flourishing in areas with dense thorn scrub forests and palm savannas, where vegetation such as Copernicia alba, Schinopsis, Prosopis, and Acacia species are prevalent. It is well-adapted to ecosystems like the Gran Chaco, Pampas, and Espinal, where it also occupies abandoned fields with open scrub and scattered trees. Scimitar-billed Woodcreeper readily adapts to the edges of agricultural lands and can be found in both small and medium woodland fragments within agricultural regions, which feature a diverse range of flora including Geoffroea decorticans, Aspidosperma quebracho-blanco, Acacia, Schinus, and various herbs and grasses.
