The owner of a Scottsdale home had seen this Western Diamondback Rattlesnake several times over the past few days hanging around her entryway. She finally called us when she was convinced it had crawled through a small hole and into the exterior wall of the home.
Jason used his phone to investigate the hole and quickly discovered that he was being watched from inside.
With the snake tucked too deeply into the space to safely reach, this turned into a water extraction. After some persistence, the exhausted rattlesnake finally surrendered and came out. Jason relocated it to suitable habitat in a desert preserve.
