I just picked up trapping permission that had major beaver problems. I will have to walk because it’s flooded most of the property. I normally use 1/2” rebar or bags of sand.
I’d like to use lighter weight fiberglass rods instead. Does anyone know of a source for 10’ 1/2” fiberglass rods. |

Tree stakes are 1/2" fiberglass and 10' for orchards or re-foresting.
I think they are sold by the hundreds though. |

Thanks for the tree stake ideas. That is probably the way I’ll go. Shipping costs almost as much as the stakes but I can live with that. I also found fiberglass rebar at Lowe’s but it’s bright pink. I might try a stick to see if it’s too bright.

Try a concrete construction supplier, alot of DOTs approved fiber glass rebar in construction.
I believe Ohio is one of them. Probably alot cheaper, with more sizes. |

Thanks. I’ll try that too. Unfortunately most of the beaver dams blew out with the rain last week so all of my traps were high and dry. I’m going to wait a week before I reset all of them. Right now I have several 330’s and 220’s out.
