Beaver Traps????
I have some problem beavers I need to deal with. They are backing up the over flow drain on a pond on one of the properties I hunt. I know where they are traveling and getting in and out of the pond. What type of trap, and what size should I use on these horrible critters.? I cant shoot them because of the proximity to houses, so trapping is the only option.

You're better off getting an experienced beaver trapper if you want to get rid of them......as somebody without experience is likely to educate them making them that much harder to trap. Maybe contact the VTA and they can refer somebody to you.

What county? If I'm close enough, I'd be glad to show you how to do it. It's not very difficult at all, generally speaking.
