Beavers, actually a large rodent, are responsible for a great deal of landscape damage on properties. Their huge teeth are conducive to easily gnawing trees down, which beavers use for building nests. Their use of tree lumber is the greatest complaint when it comes to beavers.

GET RID OF BEAVERS
Beavers are vital to the survival and expansion of wetland animals.
- Though they are a key contributor to wetland ecosystems, beavers are not only an aesthetic nuisance but a danger to people and property when their nesting habits cause flooding.
- Generally, beavers require ponds in order to survive, as they provide security and food sources for the animal. As a result, beavers dam rivers in order to stop water flow. The outcome of this process is vibrant ecosystems that provide ideal living conditions for various species of waterfowl and insects, as well as beavers. The animal can be found in large lakes and rivers, as well.
Common Beaver Problems
- Beavers do not stray too far from water sources, because they're imperative to the rodent's survival. Properties in close proximity to bodies of water, like lakes, rivers, and ponds, are at most risk of beaver infestation.
- Although beavers only affect property near sources of water, the damage caused by beaver dams can affect entire communities. In addition to felled trees and other plant damage, beaver damming can induce flooding and present serious problems for area residents. Potential flood threats should be taken care of immediately.
- Individuals who like particular trees and vegetation should encircle the base of these plants with wire mesh, which successfully deters beavers from gnawing. Never attempt to touch beavers, as they may bite when threatened. If flooding is a concern, contact professionals who have access to unique and effective solutions, including water-level control devices.
