FAQs
-
Beaver
Although beavers provide positive environmental value, they can be known to cause property damage.
According to Minnesota law, a nuisance beaver doing damage can be removed by the property owner without permit. A property owner using a removal contractor must obtain a nuisance beaver permit from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Visit the MN DNR's website for details.
Deterring Beaver Damage
Methods for deterring beaver damage include:- Protecting trees by placing hard wire cloth cylinders at least 30 inches tall around the base of the trees
- Planting native evergreens, such as common juniper, which beaver do not like, or other shrubs that regrow after some beaver damage
- Create a buffer strip of native vegetation around the shoreline
-
Geese
Though geese may be enjoyable to watch, they often wear out their welcome when they become too numerous and cover yards, beaches and docks with their feces.
Populations of the Canadian goose have risen dramatically in residential and lake areas because they have an abundant habitat, high reproductive potential and long lifespan, as well as a low mortality rate due to lack of predators and hunting seasons. Visit the MN DNR's website for details.
For the health and safety purposes, the City of Plymouth does the following to manage geese:
- Identify sites with excessive damage/droppings and water quality issues
- Cooperate with the City of Medicine Lake and Three Rivers Park District for
control of geese on Medicine Lake - Request removal permits from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources
- Work with Canada Goose Management or other comparable contractor to conduct appropriate removals and/or implement egg and nest removal where appropriate
- Document and report to MN DNR

Turkeys
According to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the state is home to more than 70,000 wild turkeys. These birds are active during the day, foraging for insects, grubs and seeds, so it's not uncommon for them to be spotted in urban and suburban areas.
Wild turkeys are easily acclimated to humans and can become nuisance animals when they roost on roofs, in trees near homes, on decks and other areas.
Yearling males (jakes) may also become aggressive and chase homeowners, children and pets. Property owners who have fed the birds to encourage them to stay typically have regretted the decision once the droppings accumulate, property is damaged or they're chased by aggressive jakes. If this behavior persists, residents are encouraged to call 911.
Tips to Thwart Turkeys
Steps residents can take to discourage turkeys from taking up residence on their property include:- Do not feed turkeys
- Keep bird feeder areas clean
- Do not raise and release turkeys
- Do not let turkeys intimidate you or become comfortable in your yard – chase them away with loud noises, a broom or a water hose.
