Trapping, or Relocating a Beaver
« on: November 02, 2019, 12:58:49 PM »
Hey All,

How do we get rid of a Beaver that is blocking a culvert and causing damage to a private road? Unincorporated Snohomish County. If you do not want to answer here please PM me. Thank you

Relocation is pretty much not an option. Trapping season is just open so maybe someone will volunteer. If not you will have to hire it done by a WCO. Look here for a list of WCOs in your area

A put up beaver is only worth about $10 so don't be surprised if you have to hire someone.
Quite a range of prices so shop around.

If you don't end up working it out, let me know.  I handle the nuisance beaver on quite a few farms in the area. 
May that for which I prepare never come to pass.
