Beavers
Dam It! Got Beaver Trouble?
When nature’s engineers decide to renovate your waterfront property, things can get messy fast! While beavers are incredible architects, their home improvement projects probably weren’t in your landscaping plans. Batman Wildlife has the expertise to handle these enthusiastic lumberjacks before they turn your property into their next construction site.
Warning signs of beaver activity:
- Trees with distinctive cone-shaped bite marks
- Fallen or partially gnawed trees near water
- Mysterious dams appearing in waterways
- Flooding in previously dry areas
- Blocked culverts or drainage systems
- Muddy “slides” leading from water to chewed trees
- Lodge construction (those dome-shaped piles of sticks in water)
- Water levels rising unexpectedly in ponds or streams
