Beaver and Muskrat Damage
in Middle Tennessee
Beaver activity on your property can typically be diagnosed by gnawed or cut trees, bark peelings, and mud slides near water. Like muskrats, beavers may sometimes like in dens on the banks of a river, stream, or other body of water without building a large noticeable dam. Beavers can be identified by their large size (up to 100 pounds) and distinctive, flat tails.
​
Muskrats are much smaller than beavers and have a thin, ratlike tail. Both species can cause damage to the banks of water features through digging and erosion.

The only effective way to get rid of beavers is to eliminate beaver colonies through beaver trapping. Critter Gitter applies several safe methods for beaver and muskrat trapping in residential and commercial settings. These steps include:
​
- Positive flow device installation
- Traps placed in high activity areas focusing on beaver slides, beaver runs, trails, beaver dams, and even submerged in cases.
- Dam destruction after all beavers have been removed.
- Prevention of future beaver problems by exclusion methods.
