6:30 AM		 Tucson 85742 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Seen coiled beneath the table in the back while customer was sweeping. Juvenile
2026-06-05
8:30 AM		 Anthem 85086 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This was at a facility in the middle of the desert. The workers noticed the snake cross the road in front of the entryway and wanted to get it out of there in case it got into the facility. A lot of desert habitat around this place.
2026-06-05
3:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85262 Kingsnake The homeowner noticed the kingsnake on his back patio. It then slithered into a bougainvillea. When I arrived the snake was not visible. It went into the base of the plant and it was very dense and hard to see in. I used the hose and after a while the snake came out for a second but not enough of its body to grab. It then went back into hiding. I continued to water until it came all the way out but it slithered up the bougainvillea which was really big and I couldn’t reach it. I moved to the other side to see better, and it disappeared. There was another bougainvillea next to it that went to the ground on the other side of the fence. I think it escaped to that one and got to the ground and out into the desert behind the home. The home also backed up to a golf course.

2026-06-02
10:00 AM		 Phoenix 85028 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake The homeowner was having landscaping done in the backyard when one of the workers almost stepped on a rattlesnake. It rattled and slithered under a nearby bush. Her home is bordered by the preserve on two sides, just across the street. The yard had some vegetation here and there, but I think the snake was there because of the proximity to the preserve.
2026-06-02
10:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A family housesitting at a rural Cave Creek home called after seeing a rattlesnake on the property. The snake had moved into a shady area near the back porch by the time I arrived. This yard had landscaping that very closely matched the native desert surrounding the home. It was surrounded by an adobe wall but had several iron view gates that opened up to the large wash behind the property, making a seamless integration between the two. While searching for additional snakes, I found an Atrox shed under an artificial rock covering the pool equipment, and there were several other perfect caves in and among the large rocks surrounding the pool. Although I did not find any other snakes, I explained that there would almost certainly be more, as nothing was preventing them from entering, and there was no reason for them to exit once there.
2026-06-02
11:30 AM		 Tucson 85750 Sonoran Gophersnake Back end hit by vehicle. Nasty injury. Perhaps 50/50 on survival.
2026-06-01
4:00 PM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Dispatched a call for a rattlesnake coiled back yard. Arrived at the property and was escorted to the backyard by the customer. The backyard was very small maybe 12ftx10ft. Noticed juvenile atrox in ambush against the wall of the home. Captured snake using tongs with no issue. I suspect the snake came from a neighboring yard and was stuck in the small sliver of shade it was in. The yard was completely bare and I don’t think the snake would have stayed. Offered a fencing quote but the customer declined.
2026-06-01
9:30 PM		 Phoenix 85020 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake on the side patio. Arrived at home and was greeted by the family who showed me where they had last seen the snake move. The family said they saw a snake go under a small go-kart with a fabric covering it. I moved the go-kart and observed a small atrox in ambush in some plant debris. Captured snake using tongs and bucketed it with no issue. Performed inspection of front and backyard. No other snakes were found. Large property but has mostly brick walls surrounding it with several gate access points. The family said they have a large dog. Offered a free fencing quote and they accepted. I suspect the snake was traveling through the neighborhood from a nearby wash. The customer also stated the neighborhood block has seen a lot of construction recently.
2026-06-01
5:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Kingsnake Homeowner called about a snake in the backyard. The house is in a neighborhood with lots of washes surrounding it. The back of the house has a vision fence with easy access to the yard. There were visible quail nest and birdseed on the ground.
2026-06-01
10:30 AM		 Phoenix 85044 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The complex is getting painted, and one of the painters almost stepped on a western diamondback that was coiled by an AC unit. The snake then went into a rodent hole going under the ac cement pad. I started to water it out. It took about 20 minutes for it to come out enough for me to grab it. It kept stopping to take a drink. The complex is built on South Mountain Preserve.
2026-06-01
12:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85259 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called about a snake in the front courtyard. Upon my arrival the snake had already crawled into a fountain made of boulders. I ran water under the fountain until I could see the snake move, at which point he decided to crawl out for easy capture. The house is located in the foothills of the preserve with a very large wash located directly behind it and lots of access from the front of the house.
2026-06-01
12:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner spotted what she believed to be a rattlesnake on the side of their home near where they keep their trash cans. When I arrived, I had to move a few miscellaneous items that had been stacked up awaiting trash day. I found a small gophersnake that quickly retreated into a gap in the blocks that made up the side wall and the gate. It only took a little bit of water from the hose to gently coax the snake back out. I got it in the bucket and searched the yard for others but found none. The home was located in a typical Cave Creek neighborhood with lots of native drainages running throughout. The back yard had a view fence that opened to one of these drainages, but the footer was several feet high. While this snake may have entered up and over it, it would be a challenge for a small to medium-sized rattlesnake. There were large gaps around the gate and a few in the block that any snake could enter or exit with ease. The homeowner asked that I remove the gopher snake for fear that her dog would harm it.
2026-05-31
10:00 AM		 Phoenix 85050 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Caller reported a rattlesnake on the back patio. Upon arrival, the homeowner walked me to a kitchen window to show me the snake. I was able to immediately identify the snake as a large male Western Diamondback. The snake was currently in the process of ingesting what appeared to be a Gambels Quail. The snake had only consumed about 1/3rd of the bird. I was able to bucket both the snake and the bird without regurgitation. Upon inspecting the property, I noted a water feature at the pool comprised of large boulders, some of which offered a great deal of space in between with multiple thermal zones. Additionally, the yard has existing fencing, but it was done in a very poor and unprofessional fashion. The fencing is virtually useless. The client was advised of the problem areas and she has agreed to a fencing quote.

9:00 PM		 Tucson 85718 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Young adult atrox found sitting behind planter on back porch . They lived near the Rillito River and had open fencing so great habitat for it to be hanging around.
2026-05-29
11:00 AM		 Tucson 85718 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The rattlesnake was coiled up on the front porch by a catio and the cat was hissing at it from inside. The snake was coiled in the shade of a boganvia. The home was surrounded by a lot of desert habitat.

2:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had some painters at his house when one of them said he saw a rattlesnake in his backyard. They lost sight of it but I found it coiled under some stacked bricks not far from where they saw it. The home has a view fence and backs up to desert with some big boulders behind it that looked like perfect snake habitat.
2026-05-26
11:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner was putting the trash cans from the backyard out by the road when she saw a snake under one. She thought it was a rattlesnake. It was a gophersnake and she was relieved. There wasn't much desert around here but small pockets throughout the homes.

8:00 PM		 Mesa 85209 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Worker at Black Rock Coffee Shop in Mesa called about a western Diamondback curled up outside the store next to a rodent bait box. The surrounding desert has been completely flattened and developed recently so its a miracle this little dude was surviving. No remaining desert around so I had to take him away from the area but hopefully that will give him a better chance of survival.

She lives on a desert mountainside and has a large yard. Her fenced back yard is elevated, and the only entry is the gate. She does feed the birds and has a bird bath.

2:30 PM		 Mesa 85207 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had a bench on her front porch, and while she was sitting there, she looked down and noticed a rattlesnake coiled in the corner right beside her. The home was really close to a preserve with a lot of good habitat. The home had some heavier vegetation in the back yard but the front yard was pretty open.

6:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85259 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowners called stating they saw a yellow and striped snake that they could not identify calling along their wall. They insisted I come relocate the snake even though I assured them it was non-venomous and harmless. When I arrived, they reported that their neighbor came and took the snake for them to relocate it, but still wanted me to inspect the property for further snakes. I found an additional gopher snake after confirming the first snake was also a gopher snake. The Gopher snake that I found was climbing up some of their bushes along the back wall in their backyard. The home has an oasis of plant life as the homeowners are very into gardening. I gave them advice on trimming the bushes, thinner and up off the ground so that it didn't offer as much cover and homes for the snakes to find appealing. The home does have rattlesnake fencing along their gate and other areas but has a block wall. I did a thorough inspection of the front and backyard. The home is in a well-developed gated community, but it has lots of natural desert landscape and botany throughout the community that offers plenty of natural habitat as well as not being far from a local preserve and trail system. The snakes were both released together as they were suspected to be a mating pair. I had gotten in touch with the neighbor who is a local herper that I know well and we got to release the snakes as a pair
2026-05-24
11:30 PM		 Phoenix 85048 Nightsnake The homeowner called after spotting a Desert Nightsnake inside her home near the front door. She watched it crawl into a coat closet where her three cats kept watch until I arrived. The closet was full of items that had accumulated over the years, all of which had to be removed. I finally found the snake after removing the very last item from the closet. The homeowner thinks that it might have come in with an Amazon package that had been delivered earlier in the day. It is also possible that it found a way in through a very small gap in the front door. This was the second time that we have been called out to this Ahwatukee home to remove a Desert Nightsnake. No other snakes were found.

9:30 PM		 Phoenix 85042 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake Maintenance worker at a South Phoenix apartment complex called about a speckled rattlesnake that was outside of a tenant’s door. The complex backs right up to South Mountain Preserve, so the snake clearly wandered into the complex from the surrounding hills and was probably unable to find its way back. The tenant said he had seen it multiple times throughout the day and finally decided to call in the evening when the snake didn’t seem to be moving along. South Phoenix

6:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85266 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowners called after finding a rattlesnake curled up in a shady corner near their front door. This home in Scottsdale was surrounded by open, native desert and had a wash filled with large boulders running adjacent to the property. There was no safeguard preventing any snake from entering or exiting the front yard. The backyard was fenced off by the homeowner. No other snakes were found.
2026-05-23
10:00 AM		 Tucson 85745 Kingsnake This homeowner called when she discovered a Kingsnake in the garden in her backyard. She has no problem with Kingsnakes, but her backyard has very few exit and entry points, as it’s closed off by a large stucco wall with no gaps or exposed drains. She was concerned the Kingsnake would be trapped in her backyard if she didn’t call for help. I was on the road in minutes, and when I arrived, the snake was still in the same area- cruising alongside the wall. After receiving a fragrant bath in Kingsnake musk, I put the snake in the bucket and found a suitable release site. A deep rodent burrow underneath a dead Saguaro with some shade made for an optimal release spot.
2026-05-23
10:30 AM		 Phoenix 85044 Sonoran Gophersnake Gophersnake in a large bush/tree in the front yard. It is their first snake in 6 years. Over the phone, I said it was likely nonvenomous and offered that they send me a photo, but they said they wanted it removed no matter what.
2026-05-22
11:30 AM		 Phoenix 85048 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner heard his dog barking in the back yard, so he went and looked and saw the large snake. Not knowing what kind it was, he got the dog inside and watched the snake go behind a nearby paver that was leaned on the fence. It ended up being a gophersnake. They have lived in this home for 30 years without seeing a snake. The home had a grassy yard with very little vegetation. There was an elementary school across the street and a big drainage the lead to a desert hillside on the other side of the home.

The home was built on a mountain side. The home was open to the mountain. I hiked the snake up from the back yard and relocated it near by. The homeowner was ok with that.
