Cave Creek | 85331 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowners called to request the relocation of a rattlesnake from the backyard. When I arrived, there were several very excited children to manage while the dad kept watch over the snake, which had moved between the house and the shed next to it. I removed the rattlesnake from the snug area and got it contained in the bucket for relocation. The home was in a well-developed gated community that had several vegetated desert washes running through it that connect to ideal desert habitat in the Cave Creek area. |

Tucson | 85641 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | These homeowners have had several encounters with rattlesnakes on their property before, as they live directly across from a massive wash. They found this Western Diamondback having a staring contest with their cats through the sliding glass doors on their backyard patio. After waiting several minutes hoping the rattlesnake would move along, it unfortunately did not. Once they called, I quickly arrived and contained the snake, and released it into a rodent burrow in a nearby wash that was far away enough from homes to not be an issue again, but also still within its native range. |

Tucson | 85745 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | This homeowner called when they discovered a Western Diamondback sitting behind some patio decor near their front door. This isn’t their first encounter, and they knew to call us when they discovered this unwelcome guest. I responded quickly, and arrived with family members watching the snake until I got there as instructed. I captured the snake, conducted a thorough property inspection, and then released it to suitable habitat into a rodent burrow. |

Phoenix | 85085 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Staff from this apartment complex called to report a rattlesnake. When I arrived the snake was moving through a rocky area just outside the large vehicle gate. The snake appears to have suffered minor injuries from the gate as it has damage to his scales and a black grease substance on its sides. A quick inspection resulted in no further snakes recovered. |

Phoenix | 85085 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Was dispatched a call regarding a rattlesnake in garage. Arrived at home and was greeted by the family and neighbors’ family in customers drive way. Neighbor led me into the garage and pointed out where snake was. I observed an adult male atrox in ambush between a wire shelving unit and a steam cleaner. Utilized tongs to capture snake. Snake struck at tongs and did not stop rattling for the duration of my time with it. Customer stated they noticed the snake in the middle of the garage as they opened the door from the house into the garage. Customer stated that the garage door was closed at this time. The customer’s home sat essentially at the mouth of a wash that ran to the east of the property. I suspect snake came from there and entered the garage at some point when the customer had it open. Garage seals were in good order. Performed inspection of rest of garage which was largely clutter-free and no other snakes found. Inspected front yard and patio area and no other snakes found. Inspected back yard and no other snakes found. Several areas in back yard for a snake to seek refuge. I pointed this out to customer and the gaps in both of the cinder block walls at each side yard entrance. Offered customer a free fencing quote and he agreed. |

Florence | 85132 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Adult western diamondback rattlesnake that was found coiled up on the inside corner of a storage unit. Management wanted to kill it, but these people didn’t want to see it killed so called us instead. Briefly inspected the rest of the unit, but the unit was small and the floor was covered in dust, and there were no additional tracks or anything. |

Mesa | 85207 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called about a small western diamondback rattlesnake that was curled up next to his garage door. The snake was still in the same spot when I arrived, taking advantage of the shade that the house was providing. The homeowner said the snake was in the same spot yesterday and he tried to spray it with water to get it to leave, but it ended up coming back to the same spot today. I told him that he probably increased his chances of the snake staying there because the snake figured it could get a drink of water in that area. Home is surrounded by a golf course with a lot of open patches of desert in between houses. |

Phoenix | 85048 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called about a rattlesnake in her garage. When I arrived, the western diamondback was hiding behind some large boxes. The garage was fairly clean and the snake was fairly large, so it probably entered when the door was open. Large golf course nearby as well as a couple of patches of desert hills, most likely where the snake came from. |

Phoenix | 85044 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Snake in front yard. Customer called with a rattlesnake moving along the front yard of thier neighbor's house. For fear it might enter the backyard, they wanted it removed. I was able to quickly find the western diamondback under a large Lantanna shrub in the front yard. After some quick tips about bush maintenance, I was able to relocate the snake into a deep rocky cave at the base of south mountain of a trail in the neighborhood. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Received a call regarding a rattlesnake in a driveway. Arrived at the customer’s home and was greeted outside by them. The customer pointed out where he first noticed the snake in the large driveway and that he tracked it slowly moving south to some landscaping as he waited for me to arrive. I observed a young g juvenile atrox in ambush underneath a small creosote. Utilized oversized tweezers to capture with no issue. The snake had three segments in its rattle. Performed an inspection of both front and backyard, which were huge and no other snakes were found. Both yards were largely neat and tidy. I provided education on snake behavior and pointed out some areas a snake might seek refuge in the summer months. Customer stated that the builder installed 1/4” mesh around the view fence but not around gate entrances on either side of the yard. Home and development are new and surrounded by habitat on all sides. I suspect the snake was likely just moving through the property before it was found by the customer and the dog. |

The homeowner was able to keep an eye on it until I arrived. The snake was removed without incident. No other snakes were recovered. This home is completely unprotected and backed straight to a desert area. It’s likely the vegetation and large pool are attracting these snakes. |

Phoenix | 85044 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | A security guard called about seeing a rattlesnake outside of a Charles Schwab office near South Mountain. When I arrived, the snake had moved into a man-made drainage of large river rocks. It was bed down under a small pile of rocks and was found after a short search. The close proximity to open, native habitat makes this a frequent location for snake removal calls. |

Tucson | 85748 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | This homeowner called after she noticed her dog barking at something in the backyard. When she went outside to investigate, she saw a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake coiled in the corner. Thankfully, her dog alerted her of the unwelcome visitor. Thankfully the dog never got bit, but was quick to address the snakes presence. After a quick web search, she called us and I was on the road within minutes. When I arrived, the snake unfortunately moved from its original location. After some careful searching, I decided to look underneath a storage cabinet full of gardening tools. After carefully pulling each bottom drawer out, I found the snake coiled in a dark, cool corner underneath one of the shelves. I grabbed the snake, secured it in the bucket, and relocated it to a nearby wash into a deep rodent den. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Security at an apartment complex called about a small rattlesnake spotted by one of the tenants. When I arrived the young diamondback was curled up in the middle of the parking lot. There was some good habitat just across the street no less than a year ago but that land is now flattened and being developed, which likely displaced the snake and led to this encounter. |

Surprise | 85374 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The customer had stated on the call that there was a juvenile rattlesnake on her front porch in the corner and had been coiled there for a decent amount of time, unsure of the species, but would watch it until my arrival. Upon my arrival, the snake had not moved and was identified as a baby western diamondback. The customer had stated this wasn’t their first snake call and had used our company in the past, as well as for our fencing for their backyard. The snake was most likely there due to recent construction in the neighborhood/suburban expansion and being pretty close to a desert preserve. Once the snake was removed from the property, I drove out of the community and parked on the side of a desert preserve. I hiked this juvenile into the preserve, walked down a wash a decent distance to ensure it wouldn’t find its way back to a street. I then released it into a pack-rat hole under some large shrub and it went in right away. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Unit 68. This is a fence customer of ours. The snake was in the driveway and was accidentally run over. The snake did have some guts hanging out but was acting fine. I took the snake to the vet to receive care. Dr. Driggers took X-rays and no bones were broken. He stitched the snake back up and said to wait a few months before relocating. |

Surprise | 85387 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | During the call made to us, the customer had stated he was about to move his garbage bins from his backyard to the front yard when he started hearing a loud rattle and hissing noises. After backing up, he noticed the head peeking out behind the bin, but could not identify the species of rattlesnake or size. The customer had stated he was not comfortable being near the snake or watching it until arrival due to the location of the snake and its demeanor. However, upon my arrival, thankfully the snake was still located under/behind the bin in his backyard, was gently removed from the property, and properly identified as a healthy, adult Western Diamondback. After further inspection of the property, no more snakes were found and his yards was very open and well-maintained. It is assumed that the snake was most likely there because the layout of his house offered a nice cool, shaded area on the side of his backyard near his gate. It seemed to be a newer neighborhood as well with recent construction, and many desert plots surrounding the area where the snake likely originated from. The beautiful snake was driven out of the neighborhood and hiked into a desert plot, far away enough from any roads and residential areas. Once hiked into the desert, I carefully released the Diamondback into a large pack-rat hole under a large, shaded tree/shrub. |

Tucson | 85704 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | This homeowner is no stranger to rattlesnakes, as she’s had several on her property in the past. She found this Western Diamondback Rattlesnake cruising along her fence in her backyard. When arrived, the snake was enjoying the shade in a prickly pair patch. I secured the snake and safely relocated it to a nearby wash and sent it down a rodent burrow- still within its native range, but far enough away to not be a problem for any other homeowners. |

Cave Creek | 85331 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The caller reported a large rattlesnake in the rear yard. When I arrived I immediately observed a Western Diamondback rattlesnake, entirely missing its rattle, moving along some decorative cinder blocks. I was able to quickly remove the snake without incident. No other snakes were recovered during my inspection. The homeowner was strongly advised to remove the overgrown non-native grasses in the rear yard as well as any low lying bushes. |

Cave Creek | 85331 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Arrived at the property and was escorted to the backyard by the homeowner. Met husband in the backyard and he pointed out where the snake was. I observed an adult atrox in ambush atop landscaping gravel next to a plastic storage container. Used tongs to capture the snake with no issue. Snake had a mellow disposition throughout the whole encounter. The customer stated the landscaper was removing some matted oregano bushes from a terrace above the pit opposite the pool. The landscaper said he lost the snake, and the customer suspects this is the snake. The customer stated it’s the second rattlesnake he’s seen in 10 years. Inspected the rest of the property including the rest of the oregano patch and no snakes were found. Customer had a view fence atop a pony wall that I’m not certain a wdb the size of the one in the bucket could have climbed and I suspect the snake may have entered through one of the gates in either side yard. I don’t suspect the snake was in the yard for a very long time as I saw no signs of denning. Offered the customer a free fence quote and he accepted. |
