Sorry< my father had hios 96th birthday celebration and I was out of town. I live just off lake Wheeler Road, so I would be close.

Steve -- no sweat. If you can pop out Sunday, just call me for directions. It is close to Lake Wheeler.
Sue
I could not make it on Sunday. Next Sunday may be better. I am not familiar with those roads, I can get directions from you when I call.

Unfortunately, what I have found out so far in the research I've done is that it hasn't occurred to anyone that there are alternatives to trapping and killing the beavers. Luckily, the board of directors for my HOA is open to alternatives and I have…
I was horrified to see a Critter Control employee setting traps for beavers several years ago, in a corporate pond. I contacted PETA at their national headquarters. They actually had a beaver expert. They faxed a letter to building management with s…
Hey, Steve -- thanks for your reply. If you wind up able to come over, just send a note or call me at 329-5681. I will be around on Sunday. The subdivision is Whitehart and the closest intersection (you can see the pond quite easily from it) is Anfi…
Usually beavers do not dig holes under drains. Muskrats will however dig holes. The beaver will sometimes dig holes in the banks of ponds to make dens. But probably not under a drain.

I have knowledge of the Clemson Beaver Pond Leveler and have seen videos . Plus I have a lot of l knowledge of wildlife. I would have to look at the pond and see the situation. Call me . I usually go to my Fathers on Saturday. But Sunday may be a go…
Hi, Steve -- thanks for your note. I was wondering with our pond and with the way our drain is positioned (which is somewhat hard to explain) if a leveler would work but am wondering if a fence to keep them back from the area of the drain could be e…
I have some experience with beavers. I would be glad to look at your situation. However, if there is a pond already there, a water leveler may not work.

Their primary argument is that they do not want to risk the beavers undermining the drain that goes from our pond under the road -- but they've never looked at alternatives. I would like to find someone with expertise in putting in "beaver deceivers…
I can refer you to someone if you still havent found anyone yet.
Does anyone in this group have any expertise with non-lethal beaver management techniques or know of someone who does? I live in the Whitehart subdivision in Wake County and one of a group of homeowners who would like to convince our HOA not to trap…

- Sue, I would like to invite you to participate in the planting of longleaf pine trees as outlined under the events calendar dated February 13, 2010. This is a Saturday outing and will involve a drive to Southern Pines, NC located in the Sandhills of NC. There will be a similar opportunity on the following two Saturdays Feb 20 and Feb 27. I am working to help organize as large of a turn-out as possible. This event is being sponsored by The Nature Conservancy of North Carolina and will give all participants a first hand look at the longleaf pine ecosystem and an opportunity to offset part of our carbon footprint. You can call me at (980) 875-8900 for more details.
