He was showing up in the same spot in the afternoon, seen when taking out trash, and then would disappear at night. They did not know where the snake was when I arrived. I had flipped over a rat trap in the back parking lot several times. I lifted it up with tongs and felt satisfied that I could not feel the weight of a snake inside. I began to check the perimeter of the restaurant with no luck. The employee then showed me a photo of the snake and I realized it was very, very small. I went back to the rat trap, shook it vigorously, and out came the young snake! He was relocated to a much better taco-less home in the desert. Stay spicy, my friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cave Creek, AZ &#8211; Apryl<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"820\" data-id=\"8062\" src=\"https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_180503-1024x820.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8062\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_180503-1024x820.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_180503-666x533.jpg 666w, https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_180503-768x615.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_180503.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"820\" data-id=\"8061\" src=\"https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_174722-1024x820.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8061\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_174722-1024x820.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_174722-666x533.jpg 666w, https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_174722-768x615.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rattlesnakesolutions.com\/snakeremoval\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251026_174722.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This western diamondback rattlesnake had been making itself at home at a Del Taco for the past 3 days per the employees.
