How about these ideas:
Electric fence
A small fence (can acquire at most garden centers)
A sprinkler (you can buy sprinklers that shoot a jet of water at intruders)
And I use dear fencing to keep dear, dogs and what not out of my garden, you can get it shorter than the ten foot variety that I use and then just use rebar or wood stakes to make a fence to keep the beavers out.
