BEAVER POND LEVELER PIPES CONTROL BEAVER DAMS
Keep Beaver Ponds at Safe Levels
Beavers build dams for protection from predators, but sometimes these dams can cause flooding issues for people. When this occurs the size of the beaver pond can often be controlled to prevent flooding damage to human property with a well-designed Pond Leveler pipe system. This beaver Pond Leveler is designed to prevent detection and blockage by beavers. It creates a
Pond Levelers can also help prevent beaver dam blowouts. Beaver dams sometimes get so large that the might “blow out” or fail, releasing a torrent of water downstream which can cause significant damage to infrastructure. By lowering the water level with a Pond Leveler, water pressure is taken off the dam and reduces the risk of the dam blowing out. By installing one through a dangerous dam, it can help protect human health, safety and property.
Since we installed the flow devices we have had absolutely no beaver activity. There has been no problem with flooding of the roads, and it has been very effective at keeping down the costs of labor for the Department of Public Works. This way is very effective, it’s very humane, and it saves towns a lot of money.
