Beavers are large, brown rodents, the largest rodent in North America. Beavers weigh typically about 30-50 pounds and are 3-4 feet long, with flat, wide tails and large, prominent, front teeth that they use for gnawing at trees and branches, often using the wood they procure to build their extensive dams.

Beaver Damage and Behavior
Unlike other nuisance wildlife, beavers don’t have an interest in getting inside your home or attic. Beavers become a nuisance when they use their powerful front teeth to take out chunks of trees on your property, leaving behind large gashes at the base of the trunk, then using the wood to build their dams in rivers and streams.
Beavers build their dams in a dome-like shape, usually in the center of a body of water, and these dams shelter the semi-aquatic beavers for several generations. In some cases, beavers may also dig out burrows in river banks to create their homes.
Beavers will damage your trees to create their dens, and they will also feast on leaves and inner bark from your trees. Beavers also love to eat plant stems, aquatic plants, and fruit. Beaver damage can lead to a tree falling over, which can be dangerous if it falls on your house or any other structures on your property. Additionally, if your property features a body of water, beavers can build their dams on it, stopping the flow of water.
Diseases Spread by Beavers
The main illness spread by beavers is Giardiasis or beaver fever. This is a parasite that is spread through the feces of beavers, and can easily be transmitted by humans if a beaver has contaminated the local water supply. In addition, beavers can also transmit the rabies virus, although this is rare. While beavers are generally not aggressive, they will bite if cornered or threatened. Never attempt beaver removal yourself, always leave it to the experts at Critter Bros.
