Beaver Removal & Trapping in South & Central Arkansas
Beavers cause significant property damage in a short amount of time — flooding fields, destroying ponds, downing trees, and undermining banks and roads. If you have a beaver problem on your property or hunting lease in South and Central Arkansas, Praiseworthy Wildlife Solutions can help. We trap and remove beavers and assess the damage so you know exactly what you’re working with.
The Damage Beavers Cause
The visible damage is usually only part of the picture — the inspection is intended to identify the full extent of activity on your property.
- Dams that flood fields, roads, and neighboring property
- Pond damage and disrupted water drainage
- Felled trees and cleared timber
- Bank erosion and ground destabilization
- Blocked culverts and drainage structures
Flooding and Water Damage
Beaver dams redirect and back up water in ways that can affect property well beyond the dam itself. Flooded fields, overtopped pond banks, and blocked drainage are common results. The site visit assesses the extent of flooding or water-level changes, not just the dam location.
Timber and Vegetation Loss
Beavers cut timber to build and maintain dams. On forested or rural properties, that can mean felled hardwoods and ongoing timber loss. On residential properties, it usually involves trees near ponds or along waterways. The inspection documents what has been affected and identifies trees that may be at continued risk.
Blocked Drainage and Infrastructure
Beavers burrow into banks to create dens. This can affect pond banks, road shoulders, and drainage embankments in ways that are not visible from the surface. The site visit includes looking for signs of burrowing in bank areas near the activity.
Our Beaver Removal Process
- Site Assessment — We evaluate the extent of activity and identify the best trapping locations.
- Trapping — We deploy and monitor traps until the beaver is removed from the area.
- Property Review — We walk the site with you and document the damage.
- Recommendations — We advise on next steps to protect the property from future activity.
We are available to work on residential ponds, farm ponds, creek and drainage systems, hunting leases, timberland, and commercial properties. There are no minimum acreage requirements — if beavers are causing damage on your land, that is sufficient reason to call.
We Know Arkansas Land
We work on residential properties, farms, hunting leases, timberland, and large rural acreage throughout South and Central Arkansas. Beaver problems on rural land are a specialty — we understand what’s at stake when a dam floods your fields, wrecks a pond you’ve managed for years, or undermines roads on a remote timber tract. We work properties of any size, including large acreage operations where bigger companies won’t go.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does beaver removal cost?
We charge a $200 inspection fee covering travel, a full assessment of the activity and damage, and a written estimate. No pressure, no hidden fees.
How do you remove beavers — can they be relocated?
We use professional foothold and body-grip traps set in active areas. Relocation is rarely effective — beavers are territorial and often return or establish problems elsewhere. Our trapping methods are effective and comply with Arkansas regulations.
Will beavers come back after removal?
They can, if the habitat hasn’t changed. We’ll advise you on what steps may reduce future pressure on your property.
How fast can beavers cause damage?
Fast. A single beaver can fell a tree in hours and build dam sections overnight. An established pair can flood a field or pond within days. Earlier calls = less damage.
Do you work on large rural properties and hunting leases?
Yes. Remote acreage and timber tracts are a specialty. We go where the job is — no property is too far out.
What about beaver dams on drainage ditches or creeks?
Common call. Removing the dam without trapping the beaver is temporary — it rebuilds within days. We trap first, then advise on dam management.
How do I know if beavers are actually the problem?
Beavers leave specific signs: chewed tree stumps with a pointed shape, mud-and-stick dams across water flow, and sometimes lodge structures near ponds or creek banks. If you are seeing those signs or have unexplained flooding near a waterway, beavers are a likely cause. The $200 inspection identifies what is responsible and gives you a clear picture of what is happening on the property.
Do you remove the beaver dam as part of the job?
It depends on the situation. In some cases, partial or full dam removal is appropriate to restore drainage. In others, leaving the structure in place after the beaver is gone makes more sense — removing a dam too quickly can cause downstream water problems. We discuss the options with you during the property review and recommend an approach based on what the site requires.
I have a pond and haven’t seen flooding yet. Should I be concerned?
Possibly. Beavers can establish activity near ponds before flooding becomes visible, including burrowing into pond banks. If you are noticing chewed stumps, disturbed bank areas, or unexplained changes near your pond, a site visit can determine whether beavers are involved.
Inspection fee: $200. That covers our time, travel, and a thorough property assessment. After the inspection, you get a clear written estimate before any work begins.
No scare tactics. No upsells you don't need. Just honest wildlife control.
