Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner was taking the trash out in the backyard when she heard the rattle and then saw the snake. She ran inside and didn’t watch it.

Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner was getting a package when the delivery driver spotted the baby rattlesnake coiled up by the front door. The courtyard had bricks for flooring and some up against the house weren’t sealed that well. The snake could have potentially been hibernating there, or their garage just around the corner had big gaps in the corners. Across the street they had a drainage area that had a bunch of stacked rocks which also would have provided a nice warm spot for winter. Hard to say for sure where it had been it was very small still. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner was out in the back yard kicking the soccer ball with the kids when he heard a rattle. Where the turf met up with the block wall there was an area that was indented. They assumed it was under there. I pulled back the turf to discover a rattlesnake and a bloody squirrel. The squirrel was still alive but was on its way out so I put it with the snake. After looking around I believe the snake may have been hibernating in a near by hot tub and smelt out the rodent that had a hole under the turf. The home backs up to desert and has a view fence with high block bottom. |

He went inside to call and then out front to wait with his neighbor. He could see the rattlesnake underneath the gate but then lost sight of it. When I arrived, it had easily slithered under the gate and come into the front yard. The homeowner has block walls in most areas, with 1 area with some view fence. There are gaps on both sides of his house where he had stacked bricks to keep out snakes but the baby atrox was able to climb through. He is very interested in someone coming out and giving him a quote for fencing improvements. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Homeowner called about a small rattlesnake on their back patio, right up against their sliding glass door. Upon arrival, the small Diamondback had managed to elude the homeowner. After a bit of searching, I was able to locate the little guy curled up against the base of a large palm tree. This yard has a ton of vegetation and a pool, perfect for any snake that is trying to find some relief from the impending summer heat. Snake was returned to the patch of desert across the street where it came from, I hiked it into an area that was far from the home and released it into a small burrow under a mesquite tree next to a wash. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Sonoran Gophersnake | A Sonoran gophersnake was found by a family with its head stuck in one glue trap and its tail stuck in another. I was able to place the snake and the glue traps directly into a bucket and take them home, where I poured olive oil on the snake, let it sit for some time, and then gently massaged the snake free without any damage. The snake was then given water and taken back to the area where it was originally found, and relocated 1.5 miles away in nearby natural desert, into a rodent burrow with surrounding desert tree cover. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The customer called stating that the snake was cruising around outside the front window. I drove to the home and his daughter had eyes on the snake. It was a gopher curled up in the wall gap between the front and back yard. I was able to provoke the snake out of hiding from the back yard and Maggie grabbed it in the front yard. She placed it in bucket and we did a sweep of the yard for any other snakes. The yard had some heavy vegetation and some standing water. Not far away was a big drainage area that led straight to some open desert. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowner’s dog first spotted the snake on the back patio. He brought his dog inside and called me. By the time I arrived, the snake had moved to the side yard, where I captured it. It was a very large gophersnake. The homeowner said it had been rattling its tail, which is why he thought it was a rattlesnake. The backyard didn’t have much cover besides the patio. The home backed up to a drainage that led into the desert. The yard was enclosed by a block fence with a single gate. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner went to check on her tomato plants in the backyard when she was startled by a rattlesnake caught in the netting she had used to cover the plants. Fortunately, it was a very nice day, so the heat didn’t harm the snake. It was tangled in one spot, but it hadn’t been cut by the netting and was perfectly fine. The snake was a gravid female. The homeowner hadn’t seen a rattlesnake in 20 years, even though she lives fairly close to the desert. Her yard had only one good source of shade: a lantana bush. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | A security guard called about a large rattlesnake that was hanging out near their entrance. The western Diamondback was discovered hanging out under a yucca plant when I arrived. It was in the middle of a parking lot so the snake was likely just cruising around and got a little lost amongst the asphalt. Snake released into a large rodent hole near a wash within estimated home range. |

11:30 PM |
Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Received a call about a rattlesnake on a back patio. Customer’s daughter greeted me at the front door and escorted me to the back patio. Met with homeowner out there and she pointed to a futon against the side of a wall underneath patio. I observed an atrox in ambush between a small ceramic statue of a tortoise and a small one of a toad. I pulled the futon from against the wall and utilized tongs in attempt to capture. Snake turned out to be much bigger than I had thought and it quickly became defensive. It wedged itself between the statues and the eave of the stucco and it struck at my tongs several times. I eventually was able to capture and bucket it. Provided an inspection on back yard. Yard area sloped up towards the back wall. A fair bit of landscape plants but nothing really overgrown. Brick wall all the way around with only two entry points in the yard. Drainage hole on the NW side yard and a gate on the SE side yard. Gate would definitely have been easier for snake to get into and I suspect it came from here. Customer stated she has had a few snakes in the 11 years she has lived in the home but all were non-venomous and this was her first rattlesnake. This house would not have been on the top of my list for an atrox encounter. Immediate area has been fairly developed for some time. The closest habitat was a wash that cut through the neighborhood that connected wide open desert on either side of the neighborhood. The closest access point to the wash was about 3 blocks to the NW and the second nearest being another wash maybe 4-5 blocks to SE. I wasn’t able to get a definitive answer from customer about fence quote but it appears she checked the box for it. |

11:30 PM |
Phoenix | 85050 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Received a call about a rattlesnake in the backyard near a cactus. Arrived at the home, and the customers escorted me to the backyard. I noticed an adult atrox in ambush against a wall, just to the left of a clump of opuntia. I attempted to capture it using tongs, but the snake slipped out and escaped into the clump of opuntia. I asked the customer if I could remove paddles of the cactus, and they replied, “Please do.” I removed a large portion of the clump using my tongs and hook. The snake remained sheltered behind the large base mound of the cactus. I decided to use a hose to flood the area, and the snake eventually made its way out, where I captured it with tongs and bucketed it without incident. There were small strips of habitat nearby, but the home was fairly deep inside the neighborhood. The customers stated they have had gopher snakes before but never a rattlesnake. Given the size and age of the snake, I suspect it may have been eking out a living in the neighborhood for some time. The backyard had plenty of shade and drip irrigation. I pointed this out to the customer and provided education on snake behavior. Due to the location of the house within the neighborhood, suggesting fencing did not seem appropriate. The customer was insistent on paying by invoice. |

Phoenix | 85050 | Coachwhip | The homeowner called about a young coachwhip in his swimming pool. I removed the snake and conducted a quick search for others. The backyard had a view fence that opened up to a long drainage but had a good three- to four-foot drop down to the ground. The rest of the yard had very little to offer any snake. It was clean and wide open, with a small pool and almost no landscaping. He did request to be contacted about fencing. |
