Mountain Beaver Removal in Washington
PNW Critter Control
Protecting Forests, Yards, and Property from Mountain Beaver Damage
The mountain beaver, also known as the “boomers,” is a unique rodent species found primarily in the Pacific Northwest. While they’re fascinating as one of the oldest living rodent species in the world, mountain beavers can cause extensive property and landscape damage when they burrow near homes, farmland, or timber stands. At PNW Critter Control, we provide professional, humane mountain beaver removal in Washington to protect landscapes, trees, and property from these destructive diggers.
If you’ve noticed unusual burrows, chewed vegetation, or collapsed ground near your property, a mountain beaver infestation could be the cause.
Why Mountain Beavers Are a Problem in the Pacific Northwest
Mountain beavers are different from standard gophers or groundhogs. Found mostly in western Washington, they live in complex underground burrow systems and consume large amounts of vegetation. Their activity often causes:
Tree and crop damage
Mountain beavers feed on young trees, seedlings, bark, and farm crops.
Soil destabilization
Extensive burrows weaken the ground, creating hazards for people and livestock.
Landslide risks
On slopes, their tunneling increases erosion and destabilizes hillsides.
Property damage
They may tunnel near foundations, barns, or roads, weakening structures.
Habitat impact
Heavy feeding can strip landscapes of vegetation, reducing biodiversity.
Because they are solitary and territorial, multiple burrows in one area usually mean multiple mountain beavers, requiring professional mountain beaver control in Washington to stop ongoing damage.
Signs of Mountain Beaver Activity
Mountain beavers are elusive, but their presence can be detected through damage and burrows. Look for:
- Large burrow openings (6–8 inches wide) near slopes, ditches, or wooded areas
- Cut vegetation or branches piled near burrow entrances
- Gnawed bark on young trees and shrubs
- Soil collapses or soft ground above tunnel systems
- Reduced tree survival rates in timber or reforestation areas
If you’ve seen these clues, it’s time to call the Washington mountain beaver removal experts.
