Scottsdale | 85259 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called after seeing a rattlesnake on the side of their home near the pool pump. This was a brand new fence client, however, the snake was not inside the fenced area. The side yard was an enclosed area between the house and a 5-foot-tall retaining wall. Access to the back yard from this area was through a newly snake-proofed gate, and a drain hole in the block wall to get to the front yard. This is also where the pool pump and equipment was located. When I first saw the snake, it was unsuccessfully trying to find a way into the backyard through the snake fencing. When it saw me, it retreated under the large, hollow base of the pool filter. It took almost an hour of constant running water to finally flush the snake out. The snake could have entered the area at any time from above the retaining wall, which was at ground level at the top, or through the drain in the block wall. There is also a chance the snake was hiding under the base of the pool filter the entire time. Based on the amount of time and water it took to remove, it would have been nearly impossible to know that a snake was hiding inside without actually witnessing it enter. No other snakes were found. |

Scottsdale | 85259 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowners called stating they saw a yellow and striped snake that they could not identify calling along their wall. They insisted I come relocate the snake even though I assured them it was non-venomous and harmless. When I arrived, they reported that their neighbor came and took the snake for them to relocate it, but still wanted me to inspect the property for further snakes. I found an additional gopher snake after confirming the first snake was also a gopher snake. The Gopher snake that I found was climbing up some of their bushes along the back wall in their backyard. The home has an oasis of plant life as the homeowners are very into gardening. I gave them advice on trimming the bushes, thinner and up off the ground so that it didn't offer as much cover and homes for the snakes to find appealing. The home does have rattlesnake fencing along their gate and other areas but has a block wall. I did a thorough inspection of the front and backyard. The home is in a well-developed gated community, but it has lots of natural desert landscape and botany throughout the community that offers plenty of natural habitat as well as not being far from a local preserve and trail system. The snakes were both released together as they were suspected to be a mating pair. I had gotten in touch with the neighbor who is a local herper that I know well and we got to release the snakes as a pair |

Scottsdale | 85259 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called about a snake in the front courtyard. Upon my arrival the snake had already crawled into a fountain made of boulders. I ran water under the fountain until I could see the snake move, at which point he decided to crawl out for easy capture. The house is located in the foothills of the preserve with a very large wash located directly behind it and lots of access from the front of the house. |

Scottsdale | 85259 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner was having landscaping done when the landscaper cut an overgrown palo verde and heard a rattle. The tree was right behind the homeowner's fence. When I got there, I noticed a packrat nest under the tree and instantly heard the rattle when I touched it. The tree was really thick so the landscaper let me use his chainsaw to cut a path to the snake. Eventually, it slithered out of the packrat nest but went deeper into the overgrown tree. After more cutting, I eventually got the snake. The home had desert all around it between the other homes and the preserve not too far away. |

Scottsdale | 85259 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Rattlesnake in backyard but had moved to the front yard by the time I arrived. They live near a fair amount of natural desert area but usually get kingsnakes in the backyard per them. I spoke with the neighbor and he said he usually shoos the rattlesnakes across the street and they dont have many problems with that. This is homeowner's first rattlesnake in 5 years. |

Scottsdale | 85258 | Western Diamondback and Coachwhip | Karen had workers doing some yard work around her pool when they noticed a snake within her agave plant wedged between her pool and the fence. After taking a closer look, they noticed there were two: a coachwhip and a rattlesnake literally right next to each other. Karen also had snake fencing that was installed by the previous owner. Upon inspection, i noticed many areas where rats dug under that potentially created an entryway for the snakes. |

Scottsdale | 85258 | Sonoran Gophersnake | Customer called and stated he saw a small snake behind a large package by the front door. The snake is staying put for now; however, the homeowner would rather wait inside. Upon arrival, I found a small gophersnake moving along the front walkway. I was able to remove it and check both yards and the garage to ease the customer’s mind. The snake likely came from the neighboring open desert via a nearby wash. The customer has some standing water and a pool, but otherwise a clean yard. |
