BEAVERS
About Beavers
Beavers are large rodents that live partly in water. They are mainly found in North America, Europe, and Asia. Beavers have a flat tail, webbed feet, and ever-growing front teeth. They are famous for building dams with branches and mud to form ponds, which protect them from predators and provide food.
As herbivores, beavers mainly eat tree bark and aquatic plants, favoring species like aspen, willow, and birch.
Why are Beavers a Nuisance Animal?
Beavers are often seen as a nuisance because of their natural behaviors. They build dams that can cause flooding in nearby areas, damaging crops, roads, and drainage systems, which may lead to erosion and property damage. Beavers cut down trees to build their dams, affecting local ecosystems and landowners who depend on those trees for landscaping, timber, or wildlife needs. Their activities can also reduce certain plant species that thrive at specific water levels, impacting biodiversity. Beaver ponds can draw in other wildlife, making property management harder and creating conflicts with people. Although beavers are important to their ecosystems, their actions can create challenges in agricultural and residential areas, making them a nuisance in certain situations.
How can 10-Eleven Nuisance Wildlife Control solve my Beaver problem?
We can help you manage beavers by monitoring, taking preventive steps, and removing them if needed. We first evaluate the level of beaver activity and how it affects the environment and property, looking at dam structures, feeding habits, and local needs.
To prevent issues, we may recommend fencing or protection for trees that beavers might target, and use water flow management to reduce flooding. If beavers cause major damage or safety concerns, we may suggest trapping measures to control the present population.
10-Eleven Nuisance Wildlife Control follows local laws and guidelines to ensure ethical treatment while addressing property owners' concerns and protecting the environment.
