This Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was spotted by a dog in Mesa. The homeowner noticed the dog staring at something and backing up (good dog!) and went to check it out, and it was this well-hidden Western Diamondback Rattlesnake.
The shed behind it is an ideal situation for rattlesnakes, with plenty of cover and easy access. Ultimately, this is what must be addressed to prevent future encounters.
A Tiger Rattlesnake took temporary refuge under some stuff stored in the backyard of an Ahwatukee home. Marissa helped it get back to the mountain nearby.
Rosemary – one of the most rattlesnake-friendly situations that a homeowner can put in place. The only thing that might attract more rattlesnakes would be a rodent breeding facility. These plants tend to create a massive amount of dead organic material, which retains moisture and provides great opportunity for thermoregulation, predation, hiding, giving birth, and anything else they could possibly want.
This was discussed with the homeowners during a recent property inspection. Many rattlesnake encounters can be prevented before they ever happen.

Any backyard that backs up against native desert will experience at least some level of wildlife encounters. Even when the yard is perfectly clear of any useful features for animals, proximity is often enough as animals pass through or get stuck in the maze of block and stucco.
We recently completed rattlesnake fencing around the full perimeter of this home. The next year will be less stressful, as rattlesnakes have neither reason or access to be there.

This home had a lot going on! A call came in for an unknown snake … which turned into, over awhile, two Sonoran Gophersnakes and a Sonoran Desert Toad. An owl hung out and watched the whole show.
Something to keep in mind as you start digging through boxes of decorations you haven’t touched since January: From now through mid-March, the most common snake call we will get will be to retrieve snakes found in garages. These are not snakes that “are out”, but ones that are being found at their chosen winter home. They may move around the garage, changing position to regulate against changing temperature and humidity, and other factors.
Here are a couple garage snakes, of many to come.
You have to look closely to see the steel mesh added to this rebar fence. Rattlesnakes will not be able to climb in or go under, making for an easier summer next year.

A large packrat nest built below dense vegetation is an ideal situation for rattlesnakes to live. These structures might not look like much, but are well-insulated with higher ambient moisture than the surrounding area. This was discussed with the homeowner as part of a property inspection service.
