10:30 PM		 Phoenix 85044 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake While one of the company's security guards was walking around the outside of the complex he noticed a neonate Western Diamondback coiled in a corner of a concrete staircase leading up to the main entrance of the building. He then quickly notified his boss who then called us and had the guard who found it keep an eye on it. Upon arrival the first thing I noticed was the size of the property it was a massive building that was right up against the nearby preserve after locating the security guard he then led me to the neonate Diamondback which was still in the same spot. I then used my tongs to secure the snake in the bucket. I suspect the snake may have come from the nearby preserve that borders the property in search of food.

9:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This is a fence customer of ours but the snake was in the front yard. The landscapers spotted the snake coiled under a bush. The front yard has a lot of dense heavy bushes. The home has a little desert patch next to it and a lot more just down the road a bit.

9:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake in the backyard. Customer called while I was en route and told me she was watching it crawl up a bunch of random pieces of angle iron and broom handles over another fence. Arrived and greeted customer in backyard. Customer was watching the snake with a flashlight. There was a small fenced-off area of the yard and as I peeked over the fence I noted a large adult atrox spread out along a sawhorse. Used tongs to capture without incident. Inspected backyard and no other snakes found. After inspection, I concluded there was a good chance this snake scaled over the customer’s wall via overgrown ironwoods in the wash on the other side. Encouraged the customer to report the incident to the HOA so they could trim the trees.

9:30 PM		 Anthem 85086 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A homeowner in Anthem called after finding a large rattlesnake on his back porch. The home is in a gated golf course community and has a view fence along the back of the property that overlooks a wash. There is DIY snake fencing installed but I could not find any significant integrity issues. The side gate also had some type of DIY seal, but it only ran about 14 inches up, leaving a gap above the seal. After securing the snake I did a thorough search but did not find any others, and I was unable to conclude with any confidence how a snake of this size ended up in the backyard.

9:00 AM		 Tucson 85704 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake I received a call from a previous customer stating that he was not home but his wife sees a rattlesnake. I arrived on scene and was greeted by the homeowner. The homeowner showed me the snakes location and I successfully transferred the snake to my bucket via snake pole. The homeowners are cleaning their carport to not attract anymore snakes. The previous snakes were found in the same spot weeks ago. Homeowners live in a very desert dense area with a lot of rodent activity. Homeowners are very familiar with snake activity around the area. I cleared the scene and relocated the snake.
2026-10-01
9:30 AM		 Phoenix 85042 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner noticed the snake coiled in the corner by their front door. I guess we removed one from the same spot ten days ago. The home is right next to a drainage that goes right to the preserve.

10:00 AM		 Oro Valley 85737 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner discovered the snake in his small side yard and put it in a bucket. The Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was a large old male. I assume the snake was passing through but got stopped by the wall because the property was mostly gravel and quite sparse.
2026-09-30
10:30 AM		 Phoenix 85050 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowners spotted a snake coiled under their hose on the side of their home. We went out to this home six days ago after the cleaning people spotted a rattlesnake several hours earlier, and we didn’t locate it. When I got there the snake was no longer by the hose. I searched in the closest bush and it was coiled underneath. Then I searched some more bushes close by that were very dense and I found another. The home is right next to a drainage that leads to the desert. I recommend trimming the heavy vegetation.
2026-09-30
11:30 AM		 Goodyear 85338 Ball Python We were called after a man cleaning out his storage unit at a storage facility in Goodyear found a large snake coiled up near some boxes. He was quite startled as the snake did not belong to him. After securing the snake, I tried to figure out how the snake got in. It had been about 6 months since the last time the tenant had been in the unit. There were no gaps at the floor level or around the door. There was however an open area about 3 feet from the ceiling all the way around the unit. This area was open to all adjacent units. If the snake had been left in a neighboring unit either by mistake or intentionally, and if the unit had items stacked high enough for the snake to climb up, it's possible that it came up and over the wall. The individual working at the facility was not able to pay with credit and will have to be billed by invoice.

3:00 PM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The owner of a home in North Phoenix called after seeing a rattlesnake in the shady corner of his back porch. When I arrived, he directed me to a small refrigerator and pointed out that you could see a little bit of the snake sticking out from underneath. I gently tilted the fridge about 45degrees, resting the edge up against the wall, and found that there was a second snake right beside the first. Once secure, I began a search of the yard. The large property had a view fence with DIY snake fencing overlooking a desert preserve. The mesh was installed well but was a little low in several places. The side gate was also snake-proofed, and although not perfect, I am not convinced that these two snakes entered through any sort of gap in the fence. I asked the homeowner if the gate had been open for any length of time recently and he explained that just last week, he had a landscaping crew going in and out of the yard for several hours, with the gate likely being open the entire time. No other snakes were found.
2026-09-30
7:00 PM		 Tucson 85745 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner went outside to let his dogs out and was quickly rattled by a diamondback. It slithered along the side of his house and with watching it he noticed a Sonoran gopher snake also along the wall. The gopher snake was small enough to enter a nearby shed but the diamondback was behind it when I got there. I bucketed the rattlesnake and then we emptied out the shed to quickly locate the gopher snake. Homeowners house is by a wash with metal fencing. He did accept the rattlesnake fencing referral.
2026-09-29
11:30 AM		 Phoenix 85045 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was getting into his car in the driveway and spotted the rattlesnake on the edge of the carport in the front yard. The home has a drainage right next to it that leads to the preserve and their backyard backs right up to it. The snake had a large bolus in it likely a rabbit based on the size.

2026-09-28
8:00 AM		 Tucson 85742 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake I arrived on scene and was greeted by the homeowner. Homeowner stated he was taking bush trimmings away and stumbled upon the rattlesnake. The snake then made its way to the back yard. Homeowner lost eyes on the snake but had a general area of where it went. I looked in the general area and found the snake underneath a garden hose rack. Snake was calm and not aggressive. I transferred the snake into my bucket via snake pole. I did a property search and only found scorpions. No indication of rodent activity on the property. Homeowners did state they have a lot of pigeons the frequent the area. Homeowners do have a pool. Homeowners brick wall is meshed but their gate is not. I cleared scene and relocated the snake.
2026-09-28
8:30 AM		 Mesa 85207 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This is the second time the homeowner has called us out in the last couple of months. I was the responding agent the first time as well so it was nice to see her again under the circumstances. She was walking out of her gate to go for a morning walk and saw the baby rattlesnake on the front side of the gate. She recently got fencing done and this snake was in the front yard. The neonate had a large meal in its stomach and was just hanging out digesting, I easily got it in the bucket. This neighborhood has a good-sized mountain behind the houses where I presume all the snakes come down from.
2026-09-28
10:00 AM		 Marana 85743 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake I arrived on scene to be greeted by the homeowners. They took me to the backyard and showed me where the snake was. We used a hose to flush out the snake from behind extra flagstone. I grabbed the snake with my pole and transferred it to my bucket. The home was next to a highly dense desert area and there were multiple attraction points like pack rat nests and birdbaths. Homeowners stated they saw two snakes mating not long ago but saw no signs of another snake. I advised the homeowners to call if they see another one. I cleared the scene and relocated the snake.
2026-09-27
8:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85262 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had seen a rattlesnake on their back porch the previous night and living in the desert meant just waiting for it to move on. The next day, they found the snake still hanging out in the backyard but now on the side of the house. When I arrived, the snake was still sitting on the side of the house exactly where they had seen it. The neighborhood is open to the desert on all sides and the yard had gaps in both gates and the back view fence.
2026-09-27
8:00 PM		 Queen Creek 85142 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called when they saw a small snake by their back patio door, when I arrived it moved inside a small gap in the wall and disappeared. I used the garden hose to flush the snake out with success and got it into my bucket. I checked the rest of the backyard and overall it was well maintained and the biggest attraction was their sprinklers that were continuously dripping a good amount of water. The yard is walled in so the entry points were the two gates and a weep hole in the wall. This neighborhood is backed up against a wash where the snake likely came from.
2026-09-27
6:30 AM		 Phoenix 85045 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This homeowner is a frequent customer of ours and called when she saw the rattlesnake on her back patio earlier this morning. When I arrived the snake moved underneath a plant shelf but I was easily able to move it and get the snake. I checked the rest of the yard for other possible visitors and the homeowner is aware of the attractions she has on the property. She called us 9 times last year so she is well informed on the aspects of her yard that draw the snakes in from off the mountain. She is going to be in touch with Brandon about officially getting fencing done.
2026-09-27
10:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85259 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Rattlesnake in backyard but had moved to the front yard by the time I arrived. They live near a fair amount of natural desert area but usually get kingsnakes in the backyard per them. I spoke with the neighbor and he said he usually shoos the rattlesnakes across the street and they dont have many problems with that. This is homeowner's first rattlesnake in 5 years.

2026-09-22
11:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85262 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called about a Diamondback in her garage. She said her son was in there working out and the snake wandered in and started rattling at him. After a standoff of about 30 minutes, the snake went around the corner by the front entryway and curled up in the shade, and that’s how I found it when I arrived. This neighborhood is surrounded by desert and the snake was likely looking for a cool spot to hang out during the hottest part of the day.
2026-09-21
11:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85266 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This is the second rattlesnake this house has had in under two weeks. The homeowners son got the snake into a bucket but called us out to relocate. This property has a wash right next to it and both snakes definitely came from it. The yard is very large with tons of open space but also a lot of hiding spots on the patio, under patio furniture, and next to the plants. The son said his parents have discussed fencing but have not decided to pull the trigger yet.
2026-09-21
9:30 AM		 Tucson 85715 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake I arrived at the business to be greeted by the owner. The owner stated he went to turn on his front hose and the snake was coiled up right next to it. The homeowner thought the snake was dead but it was just getting some shade. I transferred the snake to my bucket via tongs without incident. This was at an animal boarding facility. I didn’t see many rodent holes on the premise so I believe he was trying to cool off and drink by the hose. I cleared the scene and relocated the snake.
2026-09-21

3:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Coachwhip The homeowner saw a long skinny snake slither under her stove in her kitchen. She called several people before us. Her community security came first and noted a hole under the stove and couldn’t see the snake. The fire department then came and said they also couldn’t get the snake. She threw a sticky pad under the stove and called us. Right before I got to her she said she heard a noise under the stove. When I looked a juvenile coachwhip was stuck to the sticky pad. I was able to get it off unharmed. She had large slider doors that did have gaps in the corners allowing this snake to get in. The home had some natural desert beside it.

I arrived around midnight and the snake had left the room. After searching around the yard I was able to locate a large western diamondback rattlesnake which had climbed up into an ocotillo in the back yard. The yard is well guarded from the nearby desert with a lot of plants and places for snakes to hide. I spotted a small gap at one side-fence where the snake likely made entry and couldn't figure out how to leave.
2026-09-16
12:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A security guard at an apartment complex in Scottsdale called about a large Diamondback on the property. This massive old male was cruising around the property the entire time I was on my way. Unfortunately, this entire area is being developed so the desert that this old man used to call home is no longer there. I had to relocate him a bit further than I would like but kept it as close as possible to the capture site.

8:00 AM		 Tucson 85745 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was trimming a bougainvillea in her backyard when she noticed movement around the leaf litter at the roots. Recognizing a black-and-white ringed tail she called us to come get what she thought was a rattlesnake. Her dog had been bitten in this yard before. When I arrived i found what looked to be a 3-5 year old female Western Diamondback Rattlesnake coiled beneath the plant. I gently pulled at various coils to get her out and instead of rattling she just patiently pulled back. Eventually, she’d had enough and emerged from the shelter of the plant and began to rattle. This allowed me to gently put her into the bucket.
2026-09-16
9:00 AM		 Peoria 85383 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The owner of a home in Peoria called after seeing a rattlesnake on her back patio through the glass door. Her dog saw it was well and was barking and growling at it through the glass. When I arrived, the snake had moved into a nearby Lantana. The snake was large, extremely stressed, and was not easy to get into the bucket. I searched the rest of the yard, which had a lot of thick, overgrown Lantana and Heather. The yard had a long view-fence overlooking a wash. It had standard chicken wire installed as a snake-fence which had a lot of integrity issues. There were two gates leading to the backyard, both of which were not secure. I did not find any other snakes, but warned the homeowner of the attractiveness of her yard to snakes and made recommendations to mitigate future encounters.
2026-09-16
10:00 AM		 Phoenix 85041 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The landscaper spotted the snake coiled in the shady corner on the back patio. This home had an open backyard that had the South Mountain Preserve behind it. In 16 years he’s only had four snakes which for having the desert right behind him isn’t too bad. He didn’t have much vegetation in the ground. A lot of his plants were in pots.
2026-09-16

9:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw a rattlesnake in the corner of the garage. When I arrived. The snake was sitting in the same spot. When the garage door was shut, there were no clear openings meaning the snake probably entered while the garage door was open. There were no signs of rodent activity in the garage so it could have just been using it as a spot to stay cool before moving on. Easy grab and short trip out to a packrat nest in the adjacent desert.

Customer stated it was the first snake they had seen in three years that they had lived there. Very developed area near a wash but not much suitable habitat other than that. Nothing appealing about the customers backyard either so was likely just passing through or digesting.

10:30 PM		 Phoenix 85018 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake The owner of an ABNB on Camelback Mountain called after one of his guests reported being bitten by a baby rattlesnake. About an hour had passed since the bite when I was contacted, and another 45 minutes before I arrived at the residence. No one was home when I arrived because they were all still at the hospital, but thanks to very specific information from the homeowner, I located the snake fairly quickly. It was very close to the area where the encounter took place. The large home was high on the side of Camelback Mountain and had a lot of atypical features compared to most other homes in the valley, consisting of a lot of rocky nooks and water features. The "yard" was very steep and integrated into the mountain. I did my best to search the rest of the property, but I did not find any other snakes. I received word that the woman who was bitten was doing well but was still hospitalized several hours after the bite.
