Beavers are an animal commonly found throughout the northern hemisphere and well known for their dam building. They are considered the engineers of the animal kingdom. The longest Beaver dam ever recorded was 1/2 mile long and the tallest dam ever recorded was 12 feet high. Their dams and lodges are made of nothing more than sticks and mud. Damage caused by Beavers usually involves loss of trees and flooding of land.

Raccoons are a native species that are currently in a stage of overpopulation. They are intelligent and adaptable which has enabled them to thrive in a variety of environments in Washington State. Raccoons normally are solitary animals, however in the spring and summer months while females are raising young, Raccoons can be found in family groups. In rare circumstances multiple generations of family groups may form into larger packs and become quite aggressive. This is almost always a result of an artificial feeding program. Raccoons will break into attics, chimneys, and crawlspaces. They typically will do damage to heating ducts, insulation, and will also cause damage entering the structure.

Opossums are an invasive species brought to our area in the early 1900's as pets. The first official siting of an opossum in WA state was in the city of Kelso in 1947 by a University of Washington Biologist. However locals clam that the animals have been around since the late 20's. Official sightings have continued to move in a northerly direction at the rate of about 5 miles per year since the first official sighting. They are typically more active at night. Opossums are the only marsupial in North America. They are among the most silent animals in Washington State, but when threatened they may hiss or growl. Basic Opossum info:

Squirrels are ranked as number one urban problem maker and also ranked as most preferred urban wildlife species. Squirrel are primarily solitary, though they do pair up during breeding season and the mother will keep the young with her till they are independent. There are a variety of species of Squirrels in Washington State, from threatened to invasive species. The four types of squirrels in our area are; the Douglas Squirrel (protected species), the Western Gray Squirrel (endangered species), the Eastern Gray Squirrel (invasive species), and the Red Squirrel. Douglas Squirrels are the smallest of the four being only slightly larger than a chipmunk. They have a reddish gray back and a caramel colored belly. Western Gray Squirrels are the largest of the four. They are a solid gray in color with a white belly. Eastern Grays are slightly smaller than the Western Gray. They are gray with a white belly, and have fringes of reddish brown on their tail, head, and side. Red Squirrels (pictured above) are slightly smaller than the Eastern Gray. They are dark brown with flecks of black hair and have caramel colored bellies. There have been instances of interbreeding between Eastern Grays and Reds. Squirrel damage typically involves holes chewed in wood structures and chewing on electrical wires. They also make a lot of noise scratching and chewing all the time.
