Tucson | 85712 | Kingsnake | The kingsnake was climbing the side of the house to take eggs from a birds nest. The homeowner has kids and seriously wants to prevent more snakes. I advised they clear the debris around the yard that may attract snakes. The fence they have around their house is chain link with a gate over sand that doesn’t sit steady so I am writing this for the fencing team, in case it would be worth asking the homeowner for photos of the gate and posts. Despite this the homeowner seemed really concerned and asked for the fencing team to reach out. |

Mesa | 85213 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Homeowner in Mesa called about a rattlesnake curled up by her front door. The young Western Diamondback was still in the same spot when I got there and greeted me with a lovely rattle. Not much habitat in the immediate area but enough for a rattlesnake to survive I suppose. Took the snake to a nearby patch of desert that will serve as a much better habitat and placed it into a packrat nest at the base of a large shady tree. |

Apache Junction | 85119 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | They initially saw the rattlesnake by their back door last night. This morning, when their cat was outside, it found the rattlesnake under some trash cans by the back door. It was a baby rattlesnake, and it had a meal in its belly. Next to the trash cans was some birdseed on the ground. It likely set up there to snag an easy meal. Their backyard was open to the desert. I did not notice any fencing, but they might’ve had some fence like structure. Their yard was pretty big. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Homeowner called about a rattlesnake that had been living in her backyard for some time. She had seen it multiple times before, but finally decided to have it safely relocated. The house is located in an area with boulders and lots of natural desert between houses. The backyard has lots of vegetation to hide under with driplines. The snake was relocated to the foothills of a granite mountain. |

Phoenix | 85085 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner happened to look out the back window just as the rattlesnake slithered through the grass. He said it slithered all over his backyard while I was driving there. The backyard didn’t have much for cover or vegetation so it was likely trying to get out. The home had a desert hillside across the street that connected to the preserve. The home had a block fence and one gate. |

Litchfield Park | 85340 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowner was alerted by his dog barking at something outside. While investigating, he heard a distinct rattling coming from under an old nightstand that had been sitting near the front porch for some time. He was convinced it was a rattlesnake and called us right away. I arrived a short time later and lifted the nightstand to find a very large, hissing gophersnake. Although not the rattlesnake that he thought it was, the homeowner still wanted the snake removed from the property. This home sat on the outskirts of Litchfield Park and was not in a developed neighborhood. The White Tank Mountains and State Trust land were a short distance just to the west. On the property, there were a lot of items like car parts, tires, and old appliances scattered about, making for a lot of great hiding spots. I searched the entire property but did not find any additional snakes. |

Mesa | 85209 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The snake was at the back door of a dentist offices. This business center has a lot of desert right behind it. I have got a few snakes by these businesses before. They put the snake in a box and that’s how I got it. |

Surprise | 85387 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowner called about two gophersnakes in his front yard. By the time I had arrived, one had moved around to the side of the home just off of the property. The other stayed still near the walkway between the driveway and the front door. The home was located on the western edge of a brand-new development with lots of native desert just beyond the property line. I was able to capture both and then do a quick search but did not find any other snakes. Unfortunately, I was unable to sex the snakes so I can't be sure if it was a mating pair, two stubborn males, or just a chance encounter. |

Glendale | 85310 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called after a contractor working in the home spotted a rattlesnake eating a small rabbit in the front yard. After watching the snake for several minutes, it slipped down into a hole in the ground under a bench. I gently flooded the hole and the snake emerged soon after. Once the snake was secured in the bucket, we began to walk around the property to look for other snakes and talk about prevention. The home is just outside of the Thunderbird Conservation Park. It is a large lot with a view fence surrounding the back yard and pool area. Beyond the veiw fence is an open area with unoccupied horse stalls and a few old tack sheds. There is a wash running parallel to the property with lots of thick vegetation. Most of the landscaping on the property has only recently been planted and has not yet matured. I did a search of the garage which had a lot of boxes and other household items as the home was being remodeled. The seal on the garage door was brand new and in excellent condition. The homeowners are great candidates for snake fencing and would like to be contacted. |

Cave Creek | 85331 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner saw the snake earlier this morning around ten coiled in her back yard. She had to go to work so she just left it. When she got home around 2pm she saw the snake slithering in her grass in the back yard. When I arrived it was coiled up right by the gate in the back yard. The home didn’t have much cover in the yard. There was a big drainage behind the home that led straight to open desert. They had a block fence and one gate. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Caller reported a rattlesnake near the front entryway. The snake made its way to a bush in the front yard, and then the homeowner lost track of the snake’s location. I was unable to locate the snake initially, however, I was eventually able to locate the snake in a large bougainvillea bush amongst the leaf litter. I advised the client to seal the drainage block behind the Bougainvillea bush, as well as the hole under their block view fence wall in the rear of the yard. |

Peoria | 85383 | Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake | The homeowners called us after seeing a rattlesnake in the shade of a raised wooden planter on the side of their house. After capturing the snake, I checked the rest of the yard for additional snakes but found none. This home in Peoria is near several large rocky hills, but development is quickly encroaching on the native habitat. The yard was very clean with well-groomed landscaping. The best way in or out is from a view fence that overlooks a rocky man-made drainage. The homeowners would like to be contacted about snake fencing. |

Avondale | 85339 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Homeowner in Laveen called about a rattlesnake in her garage. When I arrived, the snake was nowhere to be found. Began moving stuff around and was able to locate the snake underneath an old bed frame. The young Western Diamondback was a long way from home as this area is mostly developed at this point and has very little survivable habitat. I took the snake a few miles away and found a nice little cave in the side of a small drainage where it should have a much better chance of surviving. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Last night James went out to this Airbnb property for a rattlesnake under an underground trampoline. There was no access under the trampoline so he was not able to get the snake. I went out today and the maintenance crew lifted the trampoline for me so I could hop down. There were bricks down there that the snake wedged behind and with some water, I was able to get the snake out. The property had a very large yard and had a lot of state land across the street. The baby rattlesnake was healthy so I don’t think it was down there for long but it would not have been able to get out on its own. |

New River | 85087 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called about a rattlesnake that was coiled up and resting in the shade on the side of his New River Home. He had seen the snake the driveway the night before and figured it would likely leave the area. Additionally, a fresh shed was recently found in the garage. I explained that the snake may have overwintered in the garage, which was very clean and well organized, but did have a large refrigerator and separate freezer unit. The home was on the edge of a development, with a view fence overlooking the New River wash. The homeowner had installed his own snake fencing, but there were several areas that were not adequately sealed. I searched the rest of the property and the garage but did not find any other snakes. |

Phoenix | 85048 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner watched the snake fall into the pool and then slither out. He then lost sight of it, but it was right next to a rocky waterfall feature, so he figured it went inside there. I shinned my light in there and I saw it. I was able to put my tongs in there and grab it. The home backed up to a mountainside, and another mountainside was across the street. The yard itself didn’t have any vegetation or cover in it besides this water fall feature. |

New River | 85087 | Gila Monster | The homeowner called about a Gila Monster on his porch. The rural New River Property sat on a half-acre lot and was surrounded by hilly native desert. He had a very large chicken coop that housed various types of fowl in addition to chickens. He insisted that the Gila Monster would not have been able to enter the enclosure. The man had his own snake tongs and while I was route, he put the lizard into a bucket out of fear that it would escape to his neighbor's property and be killed. No other reptiles were found. |

Anthem | 85086 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Received a call regarding a baby rattlesnake front yard. Arrived at home and was greeted outside by customer who was keeping watch on it. I observed a small juvenile atrox against a landscaping boulder in the front yard. Snake had three segments on its tail. Customer stated he first saw the snake stretched out along the sidewalk and when he saw it the snake made its way to his front yard where it stayed against the boulder. Inspected the rest of the property and no other snakes found. Desert was ran along the backside of customers property with the nearest entrance being four houses east of his. I suspect the snake was just moving along when it was spotted and went into customers front yard. In conversation customer disclosed recent life circumstances and I did not feel offering snake fencing was appropriate at the time. |

Phoenix | 85044 | Sonoran Gophersnake | Received a call about a snake in a garage. The customer stated the snake had been in the garage for over a week. The customer bought snake repellent online and admitted it must not have worked well. The customer texted me a picture and I confirmed it was a Sonoran gopher snake. Arrived at the home and was met by the customer outside of her garage. She pointed out the snake that was under a shoe rack against the back wall of the garage. Captured a snake with my hands with no issue. Snake was a medium-sized juvenile. Inspected the rest of the garage no other snakes found. Inspected the garage door seal and it seemed in good shape. I suspect the snake made its way into the garage at some point when it was open. |

Mesa | 85207 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner stated they noticed the rattlesnake curled up in the corner of a shaded gravel area at the front of her home as she was going to work on her bench project, which she had left there to dry.

The home is located within a gated community of homes with very naturalistic desert-type landscaping and large yards with lots of desert foliage, the community sits very close to the nearby Regional Park. |
