Phoenix | 85020 | Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake | Received a call from security guard at the Hilton stating they had a rattlesnake captured and the needed it taken away. Arrived at property and met security guards opposite the pool entrance. Security guards had snake in a canvas bag and stated they used tongs to capture it. The bag was sort of rigged like a pool net so guard held out the bag with a handle and I confirmed snake was a pyrrhus. I used tongs to transfer snake from bag into my bucket. Snake was very docile and inquisitive. Snake held its head upright and stared at myself and security guards. Snakes movements seemed sluggish but I saw no visible signs of injury. I asked security guards how/where they found it and they replied “over by the falls. Someone just saw it so I came and grabbed it”. When asked to elaborate the area where snake was first discovered guard just pointed to the NE. That area of the resort is the closest that faces open habitat. |

It rattled and slithered under a nearby bush. Her home is bordered by the preserve on two sides, just across the street.

Phoenix | 85020 | Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake | The Phoenix Mountain homeowner called reporting a rattlesnake she had seen since the night before in the same area by her front walkway into her home. The home is located directly beside the mountain going into the Phoenix Mountain Preserve. Most of the neighbors seem to have rattlesnake fencing except in the front areas of their driveways. When I arrived the snake was as described tucked into the corner of the front wall which had a brick facade. When I went to retrieve the snake, it began to tuck far back into the wall. When I realized the wall took a sharp left turn and had a large cavity for the snake to reside in. I confirmed with the owner that it was a southwestern speckled rattlesnake and proceeded to try to flood the snake out using a nearby garden hose. It took several attempts but finally the snake came out and I was able to contain it in a bucket and then find my way hiking into The Preserve where I went into a well-vegetated wash far from any buildings and found a deep caliche cavern to release the snake into the neighbors made me make a ticket to have their other gate fenced in a different part of the yard. They are also an existing customer. This current customer, where the snake was at their front door also already has areas rattlesnake fenced by us. |

Phoenix | 85044 | Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake | One of the workers at this community spotted a rattlesnake coiled under the lip of the building.

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. |

Phoenix | 85083 | Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake | The homeowner's son stepped out onto the back porch of their home in North Phoenix early this morning and saw a rattlesnake near the sliding door. He was letting a dog outside that the family was pet-sitting. It had just spent its first night in the house. The snake did not try to bite either the boy or the dog. The family watched the snake closely from a window until I arrived. The home is very close to a mountain preserve. The block wall surrounding the yard had several drains and there were gaps in the gate on the side of the home. The yard was very tidy. There was plenty of landscaping, but it was all very well maintained and did not offer many hiding places for a snake. I searched the yard but did not find any other snakes. |

This home is no stranger to snakes as they have had us out to remove them many times in the past. The home is backed right up against the base of a hill in South Mtn Preserve. The yard is relatively large but free of hiding spots aside from the north-facing back porch which is really the only area a snake could survive the heat of the day this time of year. |

This is the second time she has had a snake in the same place. No other snakes were found. |
