Its beaver season!

This is the time of year that people realize that they have a beaver problem. 

All spring and summer, beavers live pretty light on the land. They eat mostly pond weeds and cattail roots and the fact that they are almost strictly nocturnal means that they live in ponds, streams and lakes without anyone noticing. But in the fall and winter, they switch to eating trees and make their presence known! 

​In the fall and winter, beavers feed on the cambium layer between the tree's rough outer bark and the sapwood. This is where the tree stores all of its sugar (Think maple syrup) and the beavers cut the trees down to reach the upper branches.

We have had a number of golf course and HOA customers experience a surge in their beaver population in the last month and Predator Impact is there to help! 
​

​With urban beaver trapping, we have to be conscious of the possibility of children or pets getting into the traps. All traps are set in the water, and if a dog does get into a cage trap, it may scare him, but it wont hurt him. 

Whether you need conventional beaver trapping in a rural setting, or live trapping in an urban setting, Predator Impact is here to help.
