12:00 AM		 Phoenix 85020 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake at Pointe Hilton. Arrived and met a security guard who escorted me to where the snake was. I observed a pyrrhus in ambush at the mouth of what appeared to be a deep cave into the mountain that was just outside of several room doors. There was a support pillar just in front of the cave, and the snake was at an awkward angle to approach directly. I chose to approach the snake from the side (least direct but closest access) and the snake slipped my tongs and went deep into the cave to where I was able to hear it rattle but not see the snake. Spent approximately 30 minutes observing the cave but snake did not come out. Informed the security guard to call the hotline if the snake returned. Received a dispatch later that the snake returned and I went back to the location. The snake was again in ambush on a different portion of the rock and was able to capture and bucket successfully. Performed a quick inspection of the area and no other snakes were found.
2026-07-30
11:30 PM		 Casa Grande 85194 Sidewinder A homeowner in Casa Grande called about a rattlesnake on her back patio. When I arrived I found the Sonoran Sidewinder hiding under some debris. The home is surrounded by open desert so the snake likely wandered into the yard unintentionally and was unable to figure out a way to get back out into the desert.
2026-07-30
12:00 AM		 Glendale 85310 Nightsnake The owner of a home in Glendale called after seeing a small snake disappear behind the cabinets in his laundry room. I was able to use an endoscope and see that it was a small Nightsnake. The homeowner elected to remove several of the baseboards under the cabinets and I was eventually able to remove the snake. The home was in northern Glendale on a large lot. There was a fair amount of native habitat surrounding the property. It was a newer build and not entirely known how the snake entered the home.
2026-07-30
12:30 AM		 Florence 85132 Sidewinder A construction site in Florence called about a rattlesnake at their facility. The snake had tucked itself back under some debris while I was on my way but we were able to flood it out. This site is surrounded by open desert and has a ton of options for artificial cover and moisture for snakes to take advantage of.
2026-07-29
7:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This small western diamondback was sitting in the shade behind a garbage can on this homeowners side yard. The house backed up to open desert and the homeowner installed snake fencing had gaps in multiple locations. The snake was relocated just outside the neighborhood into a packrat nest.
2026-07-29
11:30 PM		 Marana 85743 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had reported that her dog had been bitten by a rattlesnake. The snake was located on her front porch under a mini fridge. I was able to safely extract the snake from under the fridge. The snake was relocated within a mile of the capture location into thick brush after dark.
2026-07-29
6:30 PM		 Tucson 85641 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Customer found a western diamondback rattlesnake on her back patio sleeping. She was concerned about her elderly dog.

2026-07-28

It was verified as a baby coachwhip and was harmless. Upon arrival the snake was deceased and an inspection of the garage and entire yard was conducted. No other snakes were located.
2026-07-28
11:30 PM		 Tucson 85756 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Manager at Homegoods distribution center called to report a western diamondback rattlesnake near the main entrance of their building.

2026-07-27
6:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Sonoran Gophersnake I went out to this facility two days ago. They were moving large trees that were boxed up and noticed two rattlesnakes and a gophersnake under one. They accidentally killed one rattlesnake and the other two snakes went under another nearby tree that was going to be transported. They weren’t moving it until today, so I went out to see if the snakes were still underneath. When they lifted the tree, there was a gophersnake. It had been badly injured by the moving of the tree. It does not look like it will survive. No other snakes were seen today. This facility is surrounded by desert and a golf course.
2026-07-27
6:00 AM		 Phoenix 85083 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called us after having a close encounter with a rattlesnake on her back porch. She was letting her small dog out when she saw the snake near the sliding glass door, just before accidentally stepping on it. She was startled but the snake did not attempt to strike at her or her dog. The snake retreated behind a wicker couch where it stayed until I arrived. The home was across the street from a large mountain preserve, and the backyard was virtually empty. It was wide open with no landscaping. There was an RV gate on the side with a large gap underneath. The shade of the back porch and the wicker patio furniture were about the only cover available for the snake. I did not find any other snakes.
2026-07-27
7:30 AM		 Sun City 85375 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake We were called out to a Sun City home after the homeowner\'s dog alerted them to a rattlesnake crossing the back patio area. This was a shady and heavily landscaped back yard. There was DIY snake fencing around 3/4 of the yard. The fence that was shared with the next-door neighbor\'s, however, had only chicken wire installed. The home was on a golf course, but the surrounding area was open creosote flats. The snake was hiding behind some patio furniture when I arrived. No other snakes were found.
2026-07-27
7:30 AM		 Peoria 85383 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner let her dogs out when she saw a snake and heard a rattle. She thought it was a rattlesnake and got all the dogs inside. The snake had moved from the gated courtyard to the backyard and when I picked it up she said the gophersnake was the snake she thought was a rattlesnake. She has rodent issues so she opted to keep the snake around. The yard has some heavy vegetation in the front and is a corner home. The community has a fence around it but there is some desert beyond that.
2026-07-19
7:00 AM		 Anthem 85086 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Western diamondback in backyard near grill area. This is somehow the first snake in 5-10 years in their backyard. Two brothers who live together. There is snake fencing that came with the house that looks unprofessional with many gaps and not adhered to the wall on the view fencing. Concrete block wall on the side of the house with one side gate (bricks piled underneath the side gate in an attempt to keep critters out). They would love a fencing quote as soon as possible.
2026-07-19
11:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Homeowners were having a FIFA soccer party when they saw a rattlesnake on their porch. They watched it go into a hole in their outdoor fridge and barbecue cabinets. After finally obtaining the snake, I found a packrat nest underneath these cabinets and lots of rat poop. They have had snakes before but did not want to have this problem anymore. They are very interested in rattlesnake fencing as soon as possible. One of the party goers said they got their fencing through us and vouched that it works perfectly.
2026-07-19
6:30 PM		 Marana 85743 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Snake was next to trash can on back porch. Came in through the backyard gate food seeking.
2026-07-19
7:00 PM		 Marana 85658 Sonoran Gophersnake The snake was on the front porch. Ask the homeowner if they wished to keep said snake. Homeowner declined the offer. Released the Gopher snake into a deep pack rat burrow by a tree about 1/8 of a mile.
2026-07-16
7:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was out back with her dogs when she heard them bark and then a rattle. Some are snake-trained and some aren’t but she was able to get everyone inside safely. The snake then moved under some nearby cover from a bench and that’s where I grabbed it. The yard is large but not a lot of hiding spots. She did say she thought she heard a rattle yesterday by the pool equipment. The home is really close to a lot of desert.
2026-07-16
12:00 PM		 Phoenix 85050 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Western Diamondback behind target store. Captured without incident. Released into packrat nest.
2026-07-16
1:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85266 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The new homeowner said their pool guy saw the snake yesterday under the pool heater and the homeowners hoped it would leave overnight but it was still there this afternoon. When I got there I could see part of the snakes body poking out from underneath the heater, once I started to coax it out a second snake came out the other side. I got that one in the bucket and tried again with the first snake. The remaining one was clearly a gravid female and she wedged herself underneath there really good. I used water to try and flood her out while using my hook and eventually was able to grab her. This yard backs up to desert and the snakes had a perfect spot under the pool heater where the dirt was already damp and it was shaded and cool. The previous homeowners did their own snake fencing but it was old and had many gaps. There was also two holes in the wall surrounding the pool heater units that lead out to the desert. The yard is mostly open but there were a few other spots where a snake could hunker down in the future. They are interested in fencing.
2026-07-15
1:30 AM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Security from WL Gore called about a rattlesnake on their property. When I arrived the Western Diamondback was slithering through the parking lot, looking pretty lost. The area is surrounded by desert but is undergoing development so the animals are likely being displaced at this point.
2026-07-14
9:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Longnosed Snake Security guard at an apartment complex called about a tenant who said they had a “small black and white snake” in their apartment. They were able to contain it in the corner of the living room by placing a small pot over it. When I arrived I found the Longnosed Snake under the pot. The front door had gaps that the young snake could easily fit through. What was most impressive though is that this apartment was on the second floor, about 20ft up. Not quite sure how the little one managed that but either way, impressive.
2026-07-14
9:30 PM		 Paradise Valley 85253 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowners contacted us after seeing a gopher snake on the driveway of their Paradise Valley home. It was a warm and rainy night, and I did not expect to find the snake after the 45-minute drive. When I arrived, the homeowners were more concerned about me searching the property for additional snakes. It was a large, wide-open property with very little landscaping, except around the perimeter wall, so it was easy to search. There were several gates between the front and back yards, all of which had large gaps underneath. I ended up finding the Gophersnake that was seen earlier and at the very end of my search. It was just about to leave the property into the road, so I captured it before it found its way into a neighbors yard or got hit by a car.
2026-07-14
11:30 AM		 Phoenix 85044 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake One of the workers at this community spotted a rattlesnake coiled under the lip of the building. When I arrived they had the snake in a bucket in the sun. They said the snake was slithering onto the hot asphalt. I don’t know how true that was. They then said they put it in a bucket but the bucket was in the sun. When I opened the bucket the gravid female speck was limp. She never came back, either. This community is on south mountain preserve. The side where the snake was backs right up to a hillside.
2026-07-13
11:30 AM		 Sun City 85351 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner\'s dogs alerted them to a very large Gophersnake in a shaded area next to the home. The snake was bedded down on the ground under a dense canopy of recently watered plants. The home was situated near a golf course and not far from a dry riverbed. I searched the rest of the yard, which had some very nice DIY fencing blocking off drain holes around the wall, but the gate leading to the front yard had a huge gap underneath that a snake of any size could easily enter. I did not find any additional snakes
2026-07-13
7:30 PM		 Casa Grande 85122 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Home owner had just gotten home and was going inside when they spotted the rattlesnake in the aloe plant just outside their front door. The snake was coiled, likely out to get some fresh water brought in from the monsoon
2026-07-13
9:30 AM		 Tucson 85718 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Found doing yard work. Small young adult.
2026-07-13
8:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Rattlesnake in courtyard. Plants were being watered and the snake liked it.
2026-07-13
8:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw the snake coiled in his neighbors side yard under a leaky faucet. He then watched the snake slither into his yard and go into his back yard through some drain holes in his fence. The snake was on the back patio when I arrived. The home had a view fence that backed up to desert and a golf course. The preserve was just across the street.
2026-07-13
8:00 AM		 Phoenix 85027 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake An employee at a warehouse called after seeing a rattlesnake near some stacked-up pallets. By the time I arrived, the snake had moved into the shade of a large trailer. The warehouse was adjacent to Deer Valley Airport. The only small patch of native habitat nearby was part of the airport and not accessible to me. Nobody that I talked to at the facility had ever seen a snake on the property before. I had to drive down the road a little over a mile before I got to a patch of state trust land where I could release the snake.
2026-07-13
8:30 AM		 Marana 85743 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Adult female, possibly with babies
2026-07-13
12:30 PM		 Phoenix 85024 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was out back with his dog when his dog went to drink its water and it suddenly jumped back. He saw then that the dog had been bitten by a rattlesnake. He got the dog to the vet and called. After a long search, I found the snake in some thick saw grass covered pretty well and hard to see. The home had a view fence and had some desert behind it. A lot of the desert behind their home has become 2000 new homes. They still have quite a bit of desert on the other side of their home just outside the community.
2026-07-13
12:30 PM		 Phoenix 85020 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a “large rattlesnake” under her bathroom sink. When I arrived I discovered that it was actually a large Gophersnake that was stuck to two glue traps and attempting to eat a large mouse that was stuck to another glue trap. I was able to free the snake relatively easily with cooking spray and the snake was unharmed. Home is right up against a desert preserve and the homeowner said that rats are able to access her bathroom sink via faulty piping under the home so the snake must have found its way inside the home that way.
2026-07-13
12:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner contacted us after a delivery driver noticed a rattlesnake coiled up in the shade near the front door. Another snake had been removed from the same porch about a week ago. This home was in Scottsdale, surrounded by native habitat and just across the street from a desert preserve. The back yard has snake fencing that had been installed by us but the homeowner did not need me to look at it as it had been looked at only last week.
2026-07-13
1:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85260 Sonoran Gophersnake I arrived and it was a Sonoran Gophersnake that was at one point stuck to a glue trap, but freed itself and was now stuck to the floor and wall. I got it off but ended up covered in glue myself. Awkward.
2026-07-13
11:30 AM		 Prescott 86305 Sonoran Gophersnake Williamson valley area of Prescott. Gated community.
2026-07-13
5:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Female western diamondback with a belly full of food and babies. Search the area and found no other snakes and flooded area underneath adjacent sheds, but nothing came out.
2026-07-12
10:00 PM		 Peoria 85383 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake We were called out to a Peoria home after a grandchild of the homeowner stepped directly over a rattlesnake while entering the home through a back door. Two dogs were also following the child into the home, and it was at first thought that one may have been bitten. Luckily, neither the dog nor the child was bitten. The snake coiled up and waited near the back door for me to arrive. The home was close to a desert preserve, and there was a large area of development close by. A wash ran between the home and the construction site. I searched the large yard, which had a lot of heavily watered fruit trees and other landscaping. There was a view fence with a DIY snake-proofing mesh, which was full of gaps that would not prevent anything from entering. I recommended a fence estimate, but they declined to request it.
2026-07-12
12:00 AM		 San Tan Valley 85144 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call regarding a snake in the backyard area. The customer sent a picture and I confirmed it was an atrox. Arrived and met the customer out front who escorted me into the backyard. The backyard was very large ~half an acre facing west. The area of the yard directly off the back porch was gated with a view fence to keep pets (3 Yorkies) close to the house. The fence had a 1/4 mesh lining it all the way around. Directly west of the fence the ground sloped gently and was lined with bigger rocks. Went through the gate to access the rest of the yard and noted a large atrox in ambush to my left. Captured and bucketed using tongs with no issue. Inspected the rest of the yard and no other snakes were found. Most of the yard was barren and void of cover but there were several small fruit trees with drip irrigation. Home is surrounded by habitat on all sides and I suspect the snake likely came from the wash to the west.
2026-07-12
6:00 AM		 Phoenix 85083 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The caller reported a snake at the front door. This is the 2nd snake in 2 weeks. The snake was removed without incident. No other snakes recovered. Did see a roadrunner eating a WDB on the main road in.
2026-07-12
6:30 AM		 Sun City 85373 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Homeowner spotted a small Western Diamondback coiled at the base of a low bush in the front yard. The snake was enjoying the cool ground as the drip system had completely soaked the surrounding area. No other snakes were removed.
2026-07-12
9:00 AM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Caller reported a rattlesnake at the front door. Upon arrival, the snake was already under a bucket on the driveway. I was able to quickly contain the snake in my bucket and provided room-temperature water. The property is free from excessively overgrown plants. However, they do have numerous plants in the rear yard with a great deal of water, but all in an elevated position. The front door is pretty deeply recessed and was probably just a temporary stop for thermoregulation. No other snakes were removed.
2026-07-12
4:00 PM		 Phoenix 85020 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake The caller reported a small rattlesnake in the front yard. When I arrived the homeowner walked me to the snake. The snake, immediately identified as a Speckled Rattlesnake, was coiled at the root system of a mesquite tree. The homeowner was watering and it was clear the snake was enjoying the added humidity and cool ground. I was able to quickly and safely capture the snake without incident. No other snakes were recovered from the property.
2026-07-12
8:30 PM		 Tucson 85742 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Western diamondback was found by the front door coiled up. There were signs of pack rat activity in the yard.
2026-07-12
10:00 PM		 Marana 85743 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Rattlesnake was located on the back glassed-in porch. I showed the homeowner the hole the snake most likely entered in. Checked their yard and water meter box for any other snakes and no snakes found.
2026-07-12
10:30 PM		 Avondale 85339 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Homeowner called about a young Diamondback in his front yard. They has attempted to get the snake to move along by spraying water at it but all the snake did was climb up a bush and take cover. Home is next to some farmland but not much habitat left in this area for rattlesnakes due to new housing developments so its probably good I got him because his days were likely numbered in the area.
2026-07-12
7:30 AM		 Prescott 86305 Sonoran Gophersnake Home is set near a wash. Gopher snake tangled in garden netting. Released unharmed.
2026-07-11
5:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had seen this gravid female hanging around her fountain for multiple days before she decided to call. She was having someone come work on the fountain the following day and didn’t want the snake to be harmed. The fountain was in the front and the home had open desert all around. Released directly into cover via a packrat nest that sat on the edge of a wash.
