Expert Beaver Removal in Lexington, SC

Beavers are the largest rodent in North America. ​

Do you feel strongly about beavers? Some people think they are pests, cutting down trees and some, like us, think they are saviors of our wetlands. So, let’s sort through some beaver facts.

First, they are the largest rodent in North America. And what defines a rodent? They are mammals with continually growing front incisor teeth. And did you know 40% of all mammals are rodents?

Second, beavers are one of the few animals that modify their habitat. In order to protect their families, they build their homes in the middle of ponds. But the cool part? They dam up streams to create the ponds. 

And we always love when animals mate for life, which beavers do. Plus they are fiercely loyal to their families. Only if one mate dies, do they find a new love.

Why You Need Professional Beaver Removal in Lexington

There are many ways to control beaver damage, including:  

  • Non-lethal methods: These include exclusion, habitat management, repellents, and relocation.  

  • Fencing: You can protect trees and crops by fencing them out with heavy-gauge wire mesh, hardware cloth, or tar paper. You can also install a diversion fence upstream from a culvert to encourage beavers to build their dam elsewhere.  

  • Electric wire: You can install electric wire 4–6 inches above the ground.  

  • Paint: You can paint tree trunks with a mixture of sand and paint to prevent beavers from gnawing on them.  

  • Beaver pond leveler: You can install a beaver pond leveler to manage water levels.  

  • Trapping: You can trap beavers.  

  • Allow Allstar Wildlife to inspect your property for signs of problem beavers.
