Harleysville wildlife control tip of the month:

How to Get Rid of Beavers

Although they are very useful in nature, they can cause Harleysville pest control problems for humans when they make a flood to the areas where people live, they destroy trees and they damage waterways. They are also known as carriers of some diseases. First thing to take into consideration is that you have to be humane when getting rid of them. One thing you can do is leave them alone and just fence trees you don’t want them to touch or you can put repellents, but it is arguable whether they work at all. Using lethal traps is definitely not advisable, but if you go for that option, use a large body grip connibear trap placed over the entrance to the lodge. There are also some underwater traps you can use. Cage traps can be used as live traps which catch them quickly, but you should consider placing more than one Harleysville animal control trap because there are more of them living in one place. Another thing you should have in mind is that they are very intelligent creatures and once they realize you placed a trap, they will learn about it and will avoid it in the future.

What can be used as bait for the beaver since they eat trees which are abundant in the environment? People sometimes try poplar or castor oil, because it has a very strong smell that reminds of a bark of a tree beavers like very much. Choosing a place for the live trap is essential. You have to choose a place where you’ve seen them move, like shoreline where they come to eat trees. Cage traps are excellent for handling them because it is very dangerous to come close to a beaver. They can bite very hard, even bite through flesh with ease. Use gloves and move the entire cage, and when choosing a place to release them, check regulations. They could easily return to the place where they were caught, so it has to be in the different river and you should release them away from urban area and other Harleysville wildlife removal properties.

One thing you can do to minimize or remove Harleysville exterminator damage made by the dam without removing the beaver is to use water leveling systems. Beaver dam is intact that way, water level is low and beaver does not suspect anything because they are very quiet. The only Harleysville animal trapping problem with this is that they cost a lot.
