Nuisance Beaver Trapping
Nuisance Beaver Problems
Beavers are major nuisance animals around crops, homes, and forests. They chew down hundreds of trees and cause homeowners problems with their forestry. The major problem is the damns they build. Damns will cause flooding into yards around homes and sometimes create flooding in basements which can cause major damage to the home.
Beaver Problem Solvers
Beavers can either be trapped or caught and relocated. Once the beavers are gone the damn can be destroyed to stop flooding and prevent new beavers from moving in. We have professional beaver trappers on staff. If you are having problems with beaver dams or flooding contact us today.
How to Get Rid of Beavers?
The best method for beaver control is prevention. You can do this by making it hard for the beaver's habitat. Installing wire mesh around the base of trees close to ponds and streams will prevent them from chewing. If you already have a beaver problem and you need to remove them from a lake, pond, or stream there are a few things you can do.
- Call a wildlife control professional. You can't go to your local hardware store and buy a trap for beavers. Beaver removal is a professional job. It's not as easy as setting a live trap along the banks of the water.
- The most effective way to get rid of beavers is with lethal traps. This is typically a connibear-style body grip trap. Conibear traps are not for armatures. These types of traps take some skill and knowledge.
- Another effective way to remove beavers is through a live trap. This can be a difficult task as beavers can become trap shy to cage-style traps. Camouflaging the trap with sticks, grass, and mud is the best way to set up the traps. Using the smell of another beaver such as a gland lure is the best method for baiting the trap.
- Installing drains in the area the beavers have created their lodge. If you drain out the water with pumps and drain pipes, the beavers will not be able to live there.
- Destroying the Dam: Once the beavers are gone, you should always destroy the lodge or dam the beavers were living in. We do this with a truck and a large metal hook, or with by blowing up the damn.
How Much Does it Cost to Get Rid of Beavers?
Beaver trapping is the best method to get rid of them. Charging for beavers is a bit more expensive than trapping other pests like raccoons, squirrels, or skunks. We charge a set-up fee/inspection to come out to your home to survey the property and strategically set traps. Depending on the location of your home you may expect to pay an inspection fee of $350 or more. Typically for beavers, we charge a per-animal cost. For other animals, we may charge a per-trip charge. per animal, the cost could be anywhere from $250 and up depending on the placement of the traps and the location of your property. Once the beavers are trapped and removed we can also destroy the damn so no more flooding will occur and no more beavers will join the den.
