I agree with "meanol-", if it's their pond, leave them be and protect your plants. On the other hand they invade a pond of your making, they gotta go. Forget poison (non exist that I know of) and use leghold traps without bait around your trees in danger. Or you can use purpose built beaver traps at waters edge but they are expensive and require trapping skills. They are also lethal so much care must be used around pets. RScott

If you poison the pond you will kill a lot of other creatures besides just the beavers. Not a good idea. Also, once it's released into the water it will be irretrievable.

'scuse me?... that's the beaver's pond... if not for them, it wouldn't be there... and if they're removed, it won't be there for long without some little furry feller to patch the dam as needed.... sure, have them trapped and relocated.... what do you care?... you didn't want that pond anyways.... but if you kill or poison them, I'll haunt you and I'll hope you get a huge fine....if they are bothering your lawn trees, put a metal fabric cage around the base of the tree high enuff to keep the biggest beavers off them!!...

Call your local rangers. Or destroy a meter or two of the dam the beavers should relocate. I don't know where you live so you might want to see if the second option is legal for you.

best contact a dept, of wild life officer,
[game warden] it may be against the law to kill them, [some are protected] in some states, they can tell you how to get rid of them,
