Beavers can be pesky animals for several reasons. Their dams can cause flooding near creeks and they can weaken trees with their gnawing, potentially causing a serious threat.
For these reasons and more, many people would rather have a beaver removed from their property and taken somewhere else. Well, at Attic Kings Animal Removal, that’s exactly what we do.
Problems Caused By Beavers
Generally speaking, beavers are not a dangerous animal. They mostly keep to themselves and shy are around humans. However, the daily activity of beavers can be quite a nuisance. Beavers gnaw down trees and branches to build their dams. If you have a lot of trees near your house, this can be a pretty big problem as there’s a chance they could cause one to fall on your property.
If you live near a creek or river, a beaver dam could bring up the water level and cause flooding near your home. This can cause water damage and erosion on your property. In the right environment, however, beavers can be incredibly beneficial. That’s why we feel it’s best to move them to a more suitable place where they can thrive.
Handling Beavers
Beavers are very docile animals and pose little threat to humans. They do most of their building at night, so you’ll rarely see them. They also have super sharp teeth so keep your hands away from their mouths. When in the water, beavers will often slap their tail as a warning sign. If you see a beaver do this, make sure to stay a good distance away.
So if you have a beaver on your property and you’d like to have it removed, call Attic Kings. We’ll send out one of our professional trappers to take the animal away.
