Desert Nightsnake In A House

Desert Nightsnake In A House

This morning around 5am, a call came in from an apartment complex in Ahwatukee. The resident saw a snake, which could have been a small rattlesnake, disappear behind the washing machine. Marissa went out to get it, and thankfully it was just a Desert Nightsnake. These snakes are the most common snake in the valley to find inside homes, due to their fossorial lifestyle and tolerance of developed habitat.
