 I will lay logs, big sticks --tires --or whatever I have from the springs all the way back to my mound.I am not afraid to use whatever blocking it takes to persuade the beaver to go through the trap. I do have them go around at times, but usually get them on the way out.

I  use a lot of 2 inch thick sticks to block the space between the trap and bank...i also use a dive stick on top of the trap.
