Beaver swimming in a pond

The problem

Beaver Control, done right

Beavers are great for wetlands and terrible for your driveway culvert. A family of beavers can flood a road, a yard or a field in a few days, and take down a stand of trees along the water in a season.

We deal with beaver problems on private property, roads and farmland: removing the beavers where needed, clearing blocked culverts and protecting the trees you want to keep.

Signs to look for

How to tell it’s beavers

  • Water rising in a yard, field, ditch or road
  • Culverts or drainage pipes plugged with sticks and mud
  • Trees chewed to a point or felled near the water
  • A new dam or lodge on a stream or pond

How we handle it

Out first. Then keep them out.

  1. Assess

    We look at the water, the dam, the culverts and the trees to see what's at risk.

  2. Remove

    Where removal is needed, we do it within Maine Inland Fisheries and Wildlife rules.

  3. Clear and protect

    We clear culverts and can recommend culvert guards and flow devices that help stop them plugging again.

  4. Protect trees

    We wrap or fence the trees you want to keep.

Can I just break up the dam?

Beavers will usually rebuild it overnight, and removing dams can be regulated. It's best to deal with the beavers and the cause together.

How do I protect my trees from beavers?

Wrapping the base of trees with heavy wire mesh, about three to four feet high, is the most reliable fix. We can install it.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the animal, how much of the house is affected and how hard the entry points are to reach. We inspect first and give you a straight written quote before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Will it come back?

Not if the entry points are sealed. Removal alone is a band-aid: another animal finds the same gap. We close the gaps with heavy-gauge materials so the problem is actually fixed.

Which areas do you cover?

Cumberland, York and Androscoggin counties in southern Maine, including Portland, South Portland, Scarborough, Biddeford, Saco, Brunswick, Lewiston and Auburn. Not sure if you’re in range? Call and ask.
