2026-03-03
1:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw the rattlesnake just outside his garage door. When I arrived I could tell by how it was sitting that it was dead. It had guts coming out of its cloaca. It must have been hit by a car. The road was busy with construction workers from all the new homes being built nearby. The home has a view fence and has a lot of great habitat around. They are right by the preserve.

1:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The church was having a stack of doors moved out of their back storage area and one of the workers noticed a small baby Rattlesnake curled up outside of them, the worker used a nearby shovel to scoop it into an empty dry paint bucket. The church is on a large property adjacent to a great natural habitat on the back side where the storage area and snake was found. I took some time to look around their storage areas and peak into their storage sheds for any further snakes. No other snakes were found, and the baby rattlesnake was driven shortly up the road to the next safest natural habitat away from buildings.
2026-03-11
2:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Staff called the hotline with a report of a western diamondback traveling from the pool area along a building. I arrived at the appropriate building and the staff observers immediately pointed out the snake. It was in a semi defensive posture and clearly agitated. The snake was removed without incident. A courtesy walk through of the area resulted in no additional snakes removed, however, there was a highly decomposed section of vertebrae and skin from what appeared to be a colubrid.

11:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was in the garage and she spotted both the snakes. She then noticed they were locked up mating. They saw her and went further into the garage. The male was pulling the female around. I was able to scoop both the snakes up and keep them locked up. The garage had a lot of things in it and I noticed rodent activity. There were gaps in the garage door when it was shut. There was a lot of desert just down the road from her. The snakes were still locked up when I relocated them.
2026-03-21
9:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This western diamondback had been visiting this McDowell Mountain Ranch home on and off for the past week. The house sat on the end of the street with a wide open ravine right next to it. The homeowner knew that meant he might have frequent visitors.
2026-03-22
10:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake on the back porch. Arrived at home and the customer escorted me to the backyard area. The customer pointed out through a window where the snake was and I observed an adult atrox in a defensive posture rattling. Snake was on top of a small flight of steps that led to a door inside the home. Snake was very defensive and did not stop rattling for the duration of my time with it. Snake struck tongs as I captured it and struck out twice when I had it bucketed. Performed an inspection of the back yard. The yard was very large with topography. Home sat at the bottom of a granite mountain. Pointed out to the customer several areas of concern for overgrown vegetation that was irrigated near the pool area and provided education on snake behavior and encouraged the customer to keep plants trimmed or eliminate them. Walked around the fence line, and I noticed new holes. There is an area where the fencing stops as the wall intersects with a giant boulder on the east end of the yard. Fencing material just kind of folded back into the open desert where a snake could easily enter. I offered the customer a free fencing quote and they obliged. The customer shared concerns they had about their small dog and I stressed the importance of prevention.
2026-03-24
10:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was trimming up some plants in her backyard when she heard a rustling and looked down and saw the rattlesnake just slithering by. She kept her eye on it and it just stayed in the same area while I drove there. I grabbed the snake and looked around. She did have some heavy vegetation, but she was also trimming up her plants as we spoke. I did not see any other snakes. She has a view fence in the back, which is higher off the ground, and one gate. She has a drainage that runs by her house that leads to little sections of desert, but not much desert is left in this area.

2026-03-31
5:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Caller reported a rattlesnake near the front entryway. The snake made its way to a bush in the front yard, and then the homeowner lost track of the snake’s location. I was unable to locate the snake initially, however, I was eventually able to locate the snake in a large bougainvillea bush amongst the leaf litter. I advised the client to seal the drainage block behind the Bougainvillea bush, as well as the hole under their block view fence wall in the rear of the yard.

5:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Sonoran Gophersnake Gophersnake in garage
2026-04-10
11:30 PM		 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.
2026-04-18
12:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called because they had a snake in their backyard eating quail eggs. Before calling us, they shot the snake with a pellet gun only injuring it and it disappeared into to some landscaping rocks. I flooded the rocks with water and we found the snake on the other side of the wall. It had found a way under the wall through the rocks. The snake was observed for a couple of days and after recovering it was released into deep cover.
2026-04-19
12:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The client called with a report of a small rattlesnake coiled near the base of a trash bin, which sits behind a gate in front of the home. The client was able to watch the snake as it remained coiled in the same position until I arrived. It looked like the snake had recently had a small meal. No other snakes were recovered. The client requests a quote for fencing to protect the rear yard and possibly the trash receptacle storage area.

3:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This was at a preschool. One of the kids spotted the rattlesnake on the playground by the toy box. The employees watched the snake from inside but lost sight of it. The snake was not on the playground when I arrived but I checked the desert around the playground and found a male and female western diamondback coiled up together under a bush. The preschool had a view fence that opened up to some desert. There wasn’t much desert around this busy shopping center but enough for two rattlesnakes. There was a bit more desert across the road.
2026-04-23
4:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The caller in this instance was a property manager for a short-term rental property. The guests staying in the home saw a rattlesnake coiled behind a large shed. The children observed the snake then traveling along the inside of the perimeter wall. Unfortunately, the observers lost sight of the snake after briefly leaving the area. After a brief inspection, I determined the snake had likely made its way under the shed. After attempting a flood out for a significant period of time in each hole with no emergence, I decided to tap along the base of the shed and I was able to hear the snake rattle. After much more water, I was able to coax the snake into emerging from one of the drain holes in the shed base. The snake was recovered without incident and no other snakes were removed.
2026-04-24
9:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called about a rattlesnake on the move in her front yard. I found the snake half in a bush trying to get away. The front of the house is completely exposed to the desert with lots of open space surrounding it. The snake was relocated to the nearby preserve in a packrat nest. Twenty five minutes later the homeowner called that there was a second snake on her front porch. I went right back and found a very defensive snake stretched out at the front door. The second snake looked like a gravid female and was placed in the same packrat nest as the first.
2026-05-05
8:30 PM		 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.
2026-05-02
9:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Nightsnake The caller reported a small snake on the patio that her dog was barking at for some time. When I arrived the snake was under a plastic storage bin. The snakes mouth was agape and it was visibly not well. I placed the snake in shade and gave it cool water. I advised the client to remove slate rock pile on the side of the home and roofing tiles on the opposite side as well. The snake has not recovered but was released in hopes of pulling through.
2026-05-11
10:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called after seeing a rattlesnake on the side of his home headed towards the back yard. I arrived and took a quick look around the back yard, which was small, clean and completely empty. There was almost no landscaping and very few structures to hide under. Around the opposite side of the home from where the snake was last seen, there was a small stack roof tiles left over from a recent project. The snake was found hiding under one of these tiles, which was the only shade available in the immediate area. The property was in the middle of a development, but situated in between two natural drainages, both of which led out to more native habitat.
2026-05-18
11:30 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowners pool person was in the back yard by the pool equipment and spotted one rattlesnake. He walked to the front door to notify the homeowners and there was another coiled by the front door. The snake by the door went under a bush near by and I grabbed it. The snake in the back yard took a little coaxing to get out from under the heater but I was able to grab it. The home has the preserve across the street. This was a male and female rattlesnake. They are getting our fencing installed next week.
2026-05-27
2:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had some painters at his house when one of them said he saw a rattlesnake in his backyard.

The home has a view fence and backs up to desert with some big boulders behind it that looked like perfect snake habitat.

10:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Saw rattlesnake back yard just now ran in
2026-06-15
8:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A homeowner who lives out of state part of the year and uses this home as his snowbird/vacation home was contacted by his monthly window cleaner because they found a rattlesnake in the courtyard of the home. The home has a maze of a courtyard going through the center of it surrounded by a block wall fence system some of the outermost block walls have view fences and a series of gates. The home is in a developed gated community that has desert landscaping and lots of rock features. The back side of the community has a small remaining patch of natural habitat. The homeowner is interested in rattlesnake proofing the property. Overall, it may be easy to do if the outermost fencing and block walls are fenced, I will let him know the fencing team could be in contact with him to discuss what it would take to Rattlesnake proof the yard/courtyard. The snake had to be driven slightly out of range to the nearest natural preserve area as the community is only adjacent to very small remaining sections of natural habitat that seem to connect directly to the golf course and other plots of homes. The snake was released in the preserve, in a wash, in a deep series of holes/tunnels within the root system of a dead tree that had an adjoining pack rat nest.
2026-06-17
9:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake North Scottsdale homeowners called with a request to relocate a small rattlesnake that was crawling through the front yard towards a drainage wash that goes between properties they were alerted by the cat showing lots of interest by the window. When I arrived the snake had already made it down into the drainage ditch that I had to slide down to retrieve it still within their property but almost to the next. I inspected the rest of the property and explained that they had been doing a good job maintaining their landscaping but pointed out a few holes that might be valuable to fill in and explained that we could easily proof their back yard. The backyard is part block wall and part view fence. I explained rattlesnake behavior and safety as well. The home is in a spacious gated community that has lots of natural habitat and desert landscaping in between the homes not far from larger plots of open natural land.
2026-06-23
5:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Sonoran Gophersnake Homeowners were so scared of the snake that I did not get to do my usual education on what attracts snakes, prevention, possible fencing, etc. They were not interested in talking so I respected their boundaries and took the snake away from their home quickly. They did say that the snake had been there a few days slithering in and out of their yard, but I did not get much more out of them of how many snakes they get a year, etc. Very nice but frightened couple.
2026-06-25
4:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner went to turn the hose faucet on in the backyard when she noticed the rattlesnake coiled in a water box right below it that had the lid off. The hose was dripping which may have attracted the snake. The home backed up to a drainage that led to a lot more desert down the road.
2026-07-11
9:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The renter of the house knew there was a rattlesnake living in the backyard for some time. The landscaper told he was going to kill it and that he had already killed 7 in the past year. She called us hoping we would do it for free so the snake could live. The house backs up to the McDowell Mountain Preserve & has a view fence with some really bad snake fencing. Anything that gets in will have no way out.
2026-07-13

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.
2026-07-14
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.

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.

2026-07-27
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.
