A big, defensive Western Diamondback Rattlesnake in the backyard of a home in Scottsdale. It wasn’t that way originally, of course, spotted resting in the corner, thermoregulating against the stable temperature of the home’s foundation. But, it didn’t love being disturbed when CJ arrived to help it get to a safer spot. He was taken […]

This was a fun one, and the mark of the official start of “rattlesnake in a garage” season for our team. I was called to a home in Cave Creek where homeowners saw a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake that had come into the garage while the door was left open for a few hours in the […]

A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was first spotted resting in the shade on the back patio. The homeowner originally thought he snake was dead, but a lime tossed in its direction woke it up and got the snake to move to the other side of the yard, where it found this place to hang out. Greyson […]

A call came in for a pair of Western Diamondback Rattlesnakes at a property in Tucson. They were both resting alongside a planter box in the yard, likely taking advantage of the higher ambient moisture. Gary safely captured them and took them to a perfect spot within their estimated home range.

A mother Western Diamondback Rattlesnake and two of her babies were spotted (just barely) in dense vegetation at a home in Rio Verde. There was a massive storm the previous night that blew debris from nearby construction into the yard, and may have played a part in why the snakes were where they were. Jeff […]

A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was spotted by a homeowner coiled up on the back patio.

Austin went out to capture the snake and search for others (there weren’t any) […]

A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake coiled up behind a pot by the front door. These situations are easy hiding spots that snakes can use to get out of the sun for the day. Cheyenne helped this one get to better surroundings.

It’s late in the season, and the snakes are on the move one last time before things cool off. Marissa heads out to a school where a Mojave rattlesnake was found tucked against the building — a good reminder that rattlesnakes don’t just live out in the desert. Jeff gets an alert on the Ring […]

A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was first spotted just outside the front door behind a potted plant, as they often are, but moved elsewhere after it was startled. It settled in between these pavers, which is where Cheyenne found it when she arrived a short time later. She relocated it to a deep packrat midden within […]
