The use of traps often is the most effective, practical, and environmentally-safe method for beaver control. Several methods and types of traps are effective for beavers, depending on the situation. The effectiveness of any trap type depends on the knowledge of the trapper and the ability to read beaver sign, recognize food preferences, and use the proper trap and trap placement. An experienced trapper with a dozen traps generally can remove all the beavers associated with a single dam in a week. More effort will be required in large watersheds with several colonies. Traps should be checked daily.

Verminators Beaver Patrol will always recommend beaver proofing your docks to prevent future invasions of beaver and river otters. We are the only company that provides this beaver exclusion service for the docks on Lake Lanier. We completely stop all animals from destroying floats, pontoons, and hydrolics with a long guarantee.

Beavers can remain submerged underwater for long periods of time, and can close their nose and ears to prevent water entry. Their lips can close behind their four large, incisor teeth allowing them to gnaw underwater without swallowing water. The underfur is dense and generally gray in color. The guard hair is long and coarse, ranging in color from yellow-brown to black, with red-brown as the most common coloration. The flattened tail is scaly, and nearly hairless. It is used as a rudder when swimming, a warning signal when slapped on the water, and a prop when sitting upright. Beavers have large, bright orange, front incisor teeth that grow continuously throughout their lives. The incisors are beveled, and sharpened through gnawing and chewing.

Beavers are very territorial. A colony generally consists of 4 to 8 related individuals that resist outsiders to the colony. Young beavers commonly are displaced from the colony shortly after they become sexually mature at about 2 years of age. They often move to another pond to begin a new colony, although some become solitary and inhabit abandoned ponds.

Beavers modify their habitat extensively, so disturbance by humans has little impact on them. Destruction of dams, and daily removal of materials used to construct dams, may cause beavers to move to another site. Such activities are labor-intensive and expensive. Some states may require permits to remove beaver dams.
