9:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner saw the snake in her garden a few days ago and thought it would leave, but she saw it coiled up against the garden bed today, so she gave us a call. The snake was photographed in the garden 30 minutes before I arrived. When I got there, the snake was not where she had last seen it. I did a complete search of the garden and the rest of the yard and didn’t find the snake. I did find a young gophersnake in the garden that she allowed to stay. The home has small pockets of desert around it and state land about a quarter mile away.

8:00 AM		 Phoenix 85044 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a rattlesnake in her garage. The snake was a gophersnake coiled up behind some boxes. The seals on the garage were bad which allowed the snake to get in. It poured last night so it was probably trying to get out of the heavy rain and snuck in. The home had a drainage area behind it.

10:30 AM		 Maricopa 85139 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner saw the snake yesterday in his water well. The well was in an enclosed room, but the lid had a hole in it where the snake must have fallen in. It was a very large well, and I could barely reach the snake with my tongs, but eventually it swam by and I snagged it. The home is surrounded by desert with very few other houses around.

10:30 PM		 Phoenix 85042 Sonoran Gophersnake Homeowner called about a potential rattlesnake in her backyard that her dogs were barking at. Lost sight of the snake in the midst of the chaos, so I had to do a bit of searching. The yard was big and had lots of open space but also plenty of debris for snakes to hide in. My main focus was a tortoise burrow that was near where the snake was seen (they have a pet tortoise) so after checking the rest of the yard I started to flood the burrow. About 5 mins later a large Sonoran Gophersnake popped out. Confirmed with the lady that it was the snake she saw, she said it was rattling its tail and I explained to her that all snakes will do that when they feel threatened. Snake released into a deep cave in the side of a wash wall within its estimated home range. South Phoenix Homeowner called about a potential rattlesnake in her backyard that her dogs were barking at.

The snake likely entered through the side gate, and the yard was surrounded by a tall brick wall with hardly any vegetation or hiding places. The snake was probably just stuck in the yard and unable to find its way back out. I took the snake to a nearby wash with dense vegetation and ample cover.
2025-09-21
6:00 PM		 Gold Canyon 85118 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a snake on the back patio. It took me over an hour to arrive, and when I did, he told me that the snake had moved, and he no longer had eyes on it. I searched the backyard and then moved to the front yard, where I found a gopher snake hiding in a thick shrub. I asked the homeowner if he recognized it as the snake from earlie,r and he said yes. The neighborhood is bordered by lots of open desert.
2025-09-22
11:30 AM		 Phoenix 85054 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner was cleaning up his front yard when he spotted the snake, which he thought was a rattlesnake. It was on his side yard, but moved to the front patio when I got there. It was a harmless Gophersnake, but it had an old injury and was missing its tail.

9:30 PM		 Phoenix 85054 Sonoran Gophersnake Received a call about a snake in the hallway of the lobby area of a building at the facility. Arrived at the building and was met by a security guard, who escorted me into the building and down the hallway. I observed a small Sonoran gopher snake stretched out along a wall. I used my hands to capture and bucket the snake without issue. The closest entry point into the building for the snake was the revolving doors where I entered.

9:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake I arrived at the maintenance yard about 50 minutes from the time the call came in. The landscapers that saw the snake were no longer present. I was told that they had seen a snake disappear into a brush pile near a dumpster. The brush pile was very large and was situated up against two drain holes, each several feet across. I began pulling branches off of the pile one at a time until I finally reached the ground when I saw a gopher snake moving through the remaining brush. I tried several times to grab the snake but was not able to capture it. It likely escaped under the large dumpster next to the brush pile. I contacted the office that called us and explained what I found. She was glad that I found the snake and was relieved it was not a rattlesnake. She said that she would call for the landscapers to come and take care of the brush.

2:30 PM		 Phoenix 85041 Sonoran Gophersnake Yesterday a customer of the extra space storage facility saw what he said to be a rattlesnake in his storage unit. He watched it slither to the one next to his and he took a video. They showed me the video when I arrived, and it was a harmless gopher snake. They still wanted me to check it out. We opened the unit it slithered to first and it was so jammed packed we could barely open the door. We then looked in the unit the guy saw it and the snake was pretty much in the same corner he saw it yesterday. It was a young gophersnake. The storage facility backs up to the salt river bottom and the door aren’t sealed tight. It’s an outdoor storage facility.

2:00 PM		 Mesa 85207 Sonoran Gophersnake The property manager called for the tenants in this home. Last night they were in the backyard and lifted an electrical box and saw a snake inside. They weren’t sure what kind of snake it was but they wanted me to go see if it was still there. It was a large gophersnake and it was still in the box and I was able to get it out safely. The home has a golf course behind it and a wash on the other side. they also have a large shed in the backyard with rodent holes underneath.

3:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85258 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a non-venomous snake in a wood pile in the backyard. When I arrived the snake had just gone back under the wood. As we were moving the wood the gophersnake came out and I snagged it. The yard did have some heavy vegetation and citrus trees. Along with some wood and junk piles. The home had a drainage area next to it that led straight to the reservation.
2026-03-28
9:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake 2 snakes were called in. The snakes did separate, so the homeowner could not watch both, but knew their general areas. I found the adult in some lantana in their side yard. There was apparently a baby with it that went into the desert area next to their home but I could not find it. Spent time educating on coexisting in the future and that we are available 24/7 to identify a snake for them via the hotline and texting a photo. They never plan to fence their property.
2026-03-29
11:00 PM		 Phoenix 85044 Sonoran Gophersnake Received a call about a snake in a garage. The customer stated the snake had been in the garage for over a week. The customer bought snake repellent online and admitted it must not have worked well. The customer texted me a picture and I confirmed it was a Sonoran gopher snake. Arrived at the home and was met by the customer outside of her garage. She pointed out the snake that was under a shoe rack against the back wall of the garage. Captured a snake with my hands with no issue. Snake was a medium-sized juvenile. Inspected the rest of the garage no other snakes found. Inspected the garage door seal and it seemed in good shape. I suspect the snake made its way into the garage at some point when it was open.

10:30 AM		 Glendale 85310 Sonoran Gophersnake Client called with the report of a large snake in the backyard.

2026-03-29
3:30 PM		 Anthem 85086 Sonoran Gophersnake The client called with a report of an unknown snake that was seen entering a PVC pipe by the pool equipment. I was able to see the head of the snake when I arrived and confirmed it was a Gophersnake. With the assistance of the homeowner, we were able to effectively push the snake out of one end of the pipe. No other snakes were recovered during inspection. The homeowner has some existing fencing installed by the previous homeowner, but he would like to have the fencing team out to fix some holes in the existing fencing.

10:30 PM		 Litchfield Park 85340 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner was alerted by his dog barking at something outside. While investigating, he heard a distinct rattling coming from under an old nightstand that had been sitting near the front porch for some time. He was convinced it was a rattlesnake and called us right away. I arrived a short time later and lifted the nightstand to find a very large, hissing gophersnake. Although not the rattlesnake that he thought it was, the homeowner still wanted the snake removed from the property. This home sat on the outskirts of Litchfield Park and was not in a developed neighborhood. The White Tank Mountains and State Trust land were a short distance just to the west. On the property, there were a lot of items like car parts, tires, and old appliances scattered about, making for a lot of great hiding spots. I searched the entire property but did not find any additional snakes.
2026-03-31
10:00 AM		 Surprise 85387 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about two gophersnakes in his front yard. By the time I had arrived, one had moved around to the side of the home just off of the property. The other stayed still near the walkway between the driveway and the front door. The home was located on the western edge of a brand-new development with lots of native desert just beyond the property line. I was able to capture both and then do a quick search but did not find any other snakes. Unfortunately, I was unable to sex the snakes so I can't be sure if it was a mating pair, two stubborn males, or just a chance encounter.

7:30 AM		 Phoenix 85048 Sonoran Gophersnake homeowner called stating that what appeared to be a rattlesnake was curled up in the backyard and the family dog alerted them of it. When I arrived they had determined it did not have a rattle, and when I went into the back yard I could see that it was infact a gopher snake stretched out along the block wall of the back yard. I picked up the snake and secured it in the bucket for relocation. The home is located in a developed community but right along a prime wash connected directly to the south mountain preserve.

1:00 PM		 Litchfield Park 85340 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowners had a potted plant in a shaded area of their back porch. In addition to a large house plant, the planter also contained a quail nest with eggs. The homeowner was checking on the eggs and was surprised to find that a small Gophersnake had made itself at comfortable right on top of the eggs. I carefully removed the snake and found that all of the quail eggs remained intact. This home was located in the far west valley, not far from White Tank Mountain. The homeowners were working on a landscaping project and had a lot of new, well irrigated plants. I was told that the back gate normally stays closed but had been left open frequently during the project. There were also narrow gaps about every 10 feet along the block wall large enough for a small snake to easily fit through. I searched the rest of the property but did not find any other snakes.
2026-04-05
8:00 PM		 Phoenix 85048 Sonoran Gophersnake Homeowner called about an unknown snake in on of their backyard planters. When I arrived, the Sonoran Gophersnake was just poking his little head out from behind a large pot. Belly full of eggs, he likely raided a small nest that was in the planter. Home is close to the base of South Mountain and has a small drainage behind it and a small hill at the end of the street. Yard was very well kept and maintained but did have gaps in the side gate so the snake likely found his way in through there. I took the snake to a nearby park that bordered a large patch of desert and released snake into a deep rodent hole under a massive shady Mesquite tree.
2026-04-06
5:30 PM		 Phoenix 85085 Sonoran Gophersnake The caller reported a snake stuck in a glue (death) trap inside the garage. Upon arrival, it was clear this was a beautiful Gophersnake the snake’s head was firmly glued to the trap. With the help of aerosolized cooking spray, I was able to quickly dissolve the glue preventing the snake from moving. No other snakes were recovered.
2026-04-07
12:30 PM		 Surprise 85387 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner and fence client called us about possibly having two rattlesnakes in a fenced in area on the property. The home doubles as a private daycare and there were lots of young children present. The area that the snake(s) was seen was a fully fenced in playground, which was not occupied at the time. When I arrived, there was some debate among the individuals present as to how many snakes were actually seen and if they were indeed rattlesnakes. An employee was able to show me a picture that she took and it was a gopher snake. I was later told that the individual that took the picture first saw the snake in one part of the playground, left for a short time, and when she returned the snake had moved. She assumed that she had seen two different snakes. After taking a picture of the snake, she watched it disappear into a rodent hole near the snake fencing. There were holes on the outside of the fence as well, and the homeowners were hopeful that the snake was now gone. I ran a hose to the hole outside of the fence and began to fill it with water. A short time later, the gopher snake emerged from the hole inside the fence. After the capture, I ran the water in all of the additional holes outside of the fence, but nothing ever came out. I made sure to check around the property for more snakes. There was a lot of clutter mostly consisting of toys and equipment for the daycare, but also a lot of tools and landscaping items. I did not find any additional snakes, but there was plenty of shaded structure, irrigation for landscaping, and likely an abundance of food based on the rodent holes and large numbers of quail nearby. I took a lot of pictures of the fence and sent them off to the fence team.

2:30 PM		 Phoenix 85048 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner went to get two bunnies out of the pool that had drowned. When he was outside he saw a snake tail coming out of a bush. On the outside of the bush was mom bunny and another baby bunny. He went inside because he doesn’t care for snakes. When I got there the gophersnake was on the back patio and I saw mom bunny close by. The snake had a bolus which must have been a baby bunny. The home has a little desert behind it and a lot more across the street. The homeowner had a shed in the back yard that he said had more bunnies under it.

10:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner saw a snake retreat behind some boxes in her garage and immediately shut the garage and called us. When I arrived I had her open the garage and the gopher snake was sitting in the corner. I was able to grab the snake and released it into a wash within its home range.
