5:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The client called with a report of a rattlesnake on the back patio. They were able to keep an eye on it until I arrived. The snake had traveled to the far side of the home by the time I arrived. I was able to remove it without incident. The homeowners have a very low view fence. I advised them to install snake fencing. They are “on the fence” about fencing. I told them I would have the fencing team reach out so they at least have the option going forward.

7:30 PM		 Mesa 85207 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Rattlesnake was in the front yard in a bougainvillea bush. The homeowner had a recent influx of rattlesnakes this year due to nearby construction. She was bitten by one on her property many years ago while dragging her dog away from the snake. Interested in snake fencing. Concrete wall all around the property with 1 RV gate and 1 side gate. She is worried about the concrete not being level underneath RV gate but it did not look like it was uneven to my eyes or anything out of the norm but just a heads up.
2026-03-28
9:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake 2 snakes were called in. The snakes did separate, so the homeowner could not watch both, but knew their general areas. I found the adult in some lantana in their side yard. There was apparently a baby with it that went into the desert area next to their home but I could not find it. Spent time educating on coexisting in the future and that we are available 24/7 to identify a snake for them via the hotline and texting a photo. They never plan to fence their property.
2026-03-28
11:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Caller reported a rattlesnake crawling along the outside of their fence. They managed to spray the snake with a hose to get it to fall into the desert but it continued toward the front of the house, prompting them to call us. The snake remained there until I arrived and was removed without incident. A courtesy inspection was completed and no additional snakes were found. The snake was likely attracted by the water fish
2026-03-28
11:00 AM		 Waddle 85355 Mojave Rattlesnake A real estate company called from a new development and reported a small/baby Rattlesnake in the front entrance of the model home. The very kind agent felt comfortable enough to place a wire trash can over the small snake and place a rock over top before we could get out to them, she even took lengths to pour water on the sides for the snake during its wait for relocation. Once I had arrived I was directed to the shaded entrance where the snake was contained, and lifted the trash can to gently transfer the rattlesnake into the bucket for transport. I walked around the rest of the model home and inspected for further snakes with no others found. The community is full of new construction within an ideal desert habitat running along the White Tanks Preserve area.
2026-03-28
11:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowners have used our services before and they called today with a report of 2 rattlesnakes. They were able to keep track of one, however, the 2nd snake was unable to be located. I found the pipe where the snakes were overwintering and sharing the space with rodents. I used water to attempt to draw anything out but only a packrat made its way out.
2026-03-28
11:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85262 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Snake was found in backyard under some bushes and they have 2 large dogs. They were able to watch the snake for me and it stayed in one place rattling at them the whole time. Homeowners were relieved the snake would be ethically relocated as they didn't want any harm to come to it. Home with some view fencing but they are happy to live with the desert wildlife and do not want any changes/rattlesnake fencing. They usually coexist if they find nonvenonous snakes in the backyard or rattlesnakes out front.
2026-03-28
12:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85262 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Rattlesnake inside the backyard near the a/c unit. They have their own fencing that came with the house and they pile up bricks to block entry areas in the block wall. They are happy with their setup and do not wish to pursue professional rattlesnake fencing despite education.
2026-03-28
12:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Caller reported a large snake of some kind in the backyard amongst the many potted plants she was watering.

2026-03-28
6:00 PM		 Tucson 85718 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This family had heard the dog barking and then noticed a rattlesnake on the back porch. When I arrived, I found an adult, apparent male Western Diamondback Rattlesnake coiled and rattling. Directly above the snake on a porch pillar was a screech owl watching the snake. Apparently, this owl is a fixture there as there is a hollow in the support post that they sleep in during the day.
2026-03-28
9:00 PM		 San Tan 85143 Kingsnake The homeowners called the hotline right after being delivered food, the delivery driver informed them they had a \"rattlesnake\" sitting behind a decoration by their front door. They were afraid to check around any further due to the potential of a misstep by doing so since it was noted to be so close to the doorway. When I arrived I immediately walked to the front door where the animal was noted to be last seen, right away to my pleasant surprise it was an adult kingsnake stretched perfectly across the doorstep looking upwards, I picked the snake up and contained it in the bucket, while doing so I heard little chirping sounds I couldn\'t quite pinpoint. After knocking on the door the homeowners pointed out the nest of baby birds within their front door wreath, and explained this was the second year the momma bird had nested there successfully. It was then very clear that the kingsnake was looking up with the intent to get to that bird nest for it\'s door dashed dinner as well. I followed up by inspecting the property which has clean minimal and well maintained landscaping with a solid block wall for fencing and explained it would be easy to have the fencing team Rattlesnake proof their yard which they were very thankful and interested in. The home is on the end of a small community that is centered in and surrounded by open desert and agricultural land.
2026-03-28
9:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85259 Longnosed Snake The homeowner called us about a possible Coral Snake at her home in Scottsdale. I arrived to find that the snake had already found a small hole on the side of the home near an air conditioning unit. I flooded the hole with water until a very cold and wet longnosed snake emerged. At the request of the homeowner, the snake was removed. This property is located in the middle of a gated community just north of a large open stretch of native desert. It was heavily landscaped with a water feature. No other snakes were found.
2026-03-27
9:30 AM		 Sun City 85351 Mojave Rattlesnake The homeowner went to take out his trash last night and spotted the snake under his trash can. This is an underground trash can, so he was just under the lid. This morning he still spotted the snake under the lid so he gave us a call. It started to heat up in that time the snake must have tried to get into some deeper cover and it fell into the trash can, so it could not get out at that point. I was able to grab it and save a gecko that fell in as well. The home was right by a drainage that leads to the open river bottom.
2026-03-27
4:30 PM		 Tucson 85742 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Young of last year.

2026-03-27
7:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85266 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was cleaning up after her dog in a corner of her back yard when she nearly stepped on a Western Diamondback. After calling us, she watched it move from the back yard to the front yard and into a bush. The bush had a packrat nest inside of it and she asked that I remove the bush in order to get to the nest. I removed both the bush and the nest but did not find the snake. I then moved to a large non native cactus which was also near where they had seen the snake. I began to flood the area under the cactus and eventually spotted and was able to remove the snake. The woman was extremely upset and stressed during the entire service, which ended up taking several hours. She wasn't upset with us, just at the situation, which was made worse because it was getting late. After capturing the snake, I took a look at the fence. I did not find a single place where I thought a snake could enter the property. She is having renovations done to the home so there is a handyman moving in and out of the gate on a regular basis. But this woman has a service dog and is extremely careful about the gate being closed at all times.
2026-03-26
10:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Rattlesnake in the backyard under a rocking chair. The snake moved while on route, but the homeowner watched it carefully and was able to point at a bush alongside the property between two homes where the snake was resting. Easy capture. Searched the rest of the property found no other animals and advised on some minor modifications to prevent access.

They watched the snake periodically while I drove to the home for capture and relocation. When I arrived the rattlesnake was as described curled up in the side of the garage and was easily placed into the bucket for relocation. The home is nestled amongst several other agricultural-style plots in a thriving and vast desert habitat with several vegetated washes running through the neighborhood and dirt roads.

9:30 PM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call regarding a rattlesnake in a backyard. Arrived at the home and customers greeted me outside the gate as they were keeping an eye on it. Entered the side yard to the west of the home and observed an adult male atrox in a defensive posture. Snake did not stop rattling for the entire encounter. Inspected the rest of the yard. Yard well kept and tidy for the most part with some weeds against the home that I advised to keep trimmed back. Customers stated they have 3 large dogs and children in the home. I offered a free fencing quote and they agreed. I suspect the snake entered the yard from the gate that I entered which was the closest access point from any habitat. Brick wall surrounding the entire yard with lattice brick for drainage on the east side yard and the gate on the west side yard.
2026-03-25
8:00 AM		 Tucson 85715 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This homeowner had seen this rattlesnake coiled on his front porch over a stretch of days and had hoped she would leave on her own. He once tried gently yeeting her away from the yard but she returned the next day. It was 62 degrees when I arrived and the snake was sluggish. She was coiled a foot or so away from the front door in an oddly exposed position. The snake was a 1-2-year-old apparently female Western Diamondback Rattlesnake.

11:00 AM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was out in his front yard when he saw the rattlesnake just slithering through. It was headed toward a large prickly pear cactus with a massive pack rat nest in it. He used a hose to keep the snake from getting in there and it coiled under a nearby bush instead. The home was really close to the state trust land but it seemed like the snake had planned on using that pack rat nest for the day.

I was able to grab the large diamondback from under the bridge. On the side of this part of the complex was a small piece of desert but unfortunately it was being bulldozed. The complex was all soccer fields and courts. Very little desert left.

8:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The callers were renting an Airbnb in the Cave Creek area very nearby the main preserve. They reported to have come out the sliding glass door to the back pool area to view the stars, and within 30 minutes of walking back, the young rattlesnake was curled up in front of the door they had just come out of. When I arrived the snake was still in the same position and easily captured, as I inspected the area about 10 feet from the sliding glass door was a large landscaping rock with holes going under it by which I saw a snake shed outside of it, and explained my suspicion that's where the snake likely came from. While further inspecting the back yard there were several rodent boxes laid out and lots of rodent droppings in various locations along with many large landscaping rocks. The home is centered in optimal desert habitat along side a preserve with several new homes under construction in the area.

10:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was trimming up some plants in her backyard when she heard a rustling and looked down and saw the rattlesnake just slithering by. She kept her eye on it and it just stayed in the same area while I drove there. I grabbed the snake and looked around. She did have some heavy vegetation, but she was also trimming up her plants as we spoke. I did not see any other snakes. She has a view fence in the back, which is higher off the ground, and one gate. She has a drainage that runs by her house that leads to little sections of desert, but not much desert is left in this area.
2026-03-24
10:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowners saw what they thought was a rattlesnake slither behind a stack of firewood in their backyard. It ended up being a Sonoran Gophersnake but they still asked that I relocate it. This home was in a Cave Creek neighborhood near a golf course. It had a lot of landscaping, a pool, and a large firewood pile. There was not a lot of easy access in or out of the yard other than from the gap under the large double-doored gate. The homeowners were interested in having the fence team give an estimate to seal this gap as they have had a rattlesnake in the pool filter in the past.

2026-03-24
2:00 PM		 Phoenix 85042 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake The homeowner called for a rattlesnake in his front yard. The speckled rattlesnake was coiled on top of some grates that were up against the home in a nice shady area. The grate had a bunch of stacked rocks underneath it. The home was on South Mountain Preserve with a lot of natural vegetation and rocks around. This yard was very big and not fenced.
2026-03-24
4:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was moving some things around in the garage when he was startled by a rattlesnake rattling at him from about four feet up on a utility shelf. His wife was also in the garage and said that she had been unknowingly walking past the snake for almost an hour. This Cave Creek home was surrounded by a lot of other homes and was not close to any native desert. However, like many of the other neighborhoods in this area, it has many narrow drainages running throughout. making for a somewhat save path to travel. The garage was full. It had a lot of shelving, and a lot of containers and boxes stacked high and deep. Although it's been warm for a few weeks now there is a chance that this snake was still not far from where it spent the winter, and this garage would have been perfect for it. The homeowner did say that the garage door was open for about an hour yesterday, so if the snake did come from outside, it may have been through the open door. Once the snake was in the bucket, I searched the rest of the garage as best as I could, but I did not find any other snakes. I recommended that they use caution when moving the remaining boxes.
2026-03-23

10:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake on the front porch of the customer’s neighbor’s home. The customer indicated the person living in the home was elderly and out of town. The customer also indicated they would like to pay for removal even though it was not their property. Arrived at the home, and the customer’s son was watching the snake with a flashlight. I observed an adult atrox in ambush beneath the eave of the front facade (eastward-facing) and tucked behind an aloe. Used a hook to move aloe leaves out of the way and tongs to capture the snake. Once I had the snake captured with tongs I used two hands in the tongs to safely bucket it. I then performed a quick inspection of the front yard and also the front yard of the caller. I noted a juvenile Sonoran gophersnake under the eave of their home and provided education on it. The customer opted to leave it. No other snakes were noted on either property.
2026-03-22
10:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake on the back porch. Arrived at home and the customer escorted me to the backyard area. The customer pointed out through a window where the snake was and I observed an adult atrox in a defensive posture rattling. Snake was on top of a small flight of steps that led to a door inside the home. Snake was very defensive and did not stop rattling for the duration of my time with it. Snake struck tongs as I captured it and struck out twice when I had it bucketed. Performed an inspection of the back yard. The yard was very large with topography. Home sat at the bottom of a granite mountain. Pointed out to the customer several areas of concern for overgrown vegetation that was irrigated near the pool area and provided education on snake behavior and encouraged the customer to keep plants trimmed or eliminate them. Walked around the fence line, and I noticed new holes. There is an area where the fencing stops as the wall intersects with a giant boulder on the east end of the yard. Fencing material just kind of folded back into the open desert where a snake could easily enter. I offered the customer a free fencing quote and they obliged. The customer shared concerns they had about their small dog and I stressed the importance of prevention.

9:30 PM		 Phoenix 85044 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Apartment complex at the base of South Mountain called about a Western Diamondback that was cruising around one of their buildings. When I arrived the snake was on the move and halfway under a bush. This place is right on South Mountain and they get plenty of snakes so the tenants and maintenance workers know the drill. Snake relocated into deep cover in a wash in the preserve.
