Mesa | 85209 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | This had to be the toughest relocation I have done, morally and emotionally.... The homeowner called about a rattlesnake on her front porch, it was in the corner when I arrived. I easily got it in the bucket and noticed that it was a very old male that was covered in large old scars. It looked as though someone tried killing him in the past and he survived his injuries. I offered to check the front and back of the property and the homeowner said I could check the front only. I did not see anything noteworthy to attract snakes other than her front patio where it was a relatively decent place to hide and is probably shaded during the day. Once I checked maps for a relocation spot I saw there was a piece of desert down the road, most likely where the snake came from. When I drove over there I realized the entire area was fenced off and soon to be under development. This definitely reassured me that the snake came from here and was flushed out of his home from the destruction of the habitat. I went back to maps to look for another close spot and found one that looked promising. But when I got to it and started hiking the snake in, I found that this was a heavily dumped area and it was covered in garbage. I hiked around the desert for 45 minutes trying to find an area that wasn't littered with trash and found it impossible. Hundreds upon hundreds of tires, plastic bottles, clothes, toys, home appliances, even a boat. I have never seen so much garbage in my life, there was so much of it and it was everywhere. This broke my heart seeing and the thought of leaving this old man atrox here was not something I could do in good conscious. He didn't deserve to be left in literal garbage. This is when I made the decision to hike us both back to my car and take him out of this part of Mesa. I knew I was taking him out of home range, but his home was just no longer... I knew a spot of desert closer to my area of Mesa that would not be developed at all due to its proximity to a national park, where he would be safe from humans, able to adapt, and not surrounded by trash. This in my mind felt like the better choice to make even though it was far from the house he was found at. On my way there I talked to Austin to get his opinion on if I was making the right decision and he reassured me that the snake would be okay. His home is gone and I was still giving him the best chance of survival even though he was out of range. So I went from 95% sure about my decision to 100% sure and I took him to the spot I had in mind. I hiked him in and found a large hole under a big tree that I released him into. We had a long night together and I definitely got stressed and emotional, but it felt good to finally release him into untouched clean desert. He went down the hole and I said my goodbye and wished him another few years. |

Morristown | 85342 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | When the homeowner went outside to take his dogs out during the night he heard a rattle and then noticed an approximately 3 foot long Diamondback by their backdoor leading to their patio. Upon realizing there was a snake and the location of the snake he swiftly gave us a call. Upon arrival the first thing I noticed was the sheer size of the property and the large amount of foliage. during the commute over to the property the Western Diamondback moved under a small night stand that was outside on that same patio next to a few lawn chairs. After carefully removing all of the furniture from the area I was finally able to remove the snake from under the night stand and safely secure it in a bucket. Upon inspecting the rest of the property I noticed large amounts of foliage and plants around the property however was unable to find any other snakes. The backyard didn't have fencing however the homeowner wasn't interested in it after I told them about its benefits. The area around the backyard was surrounded by a large expanse of desert. |

Tucson | 85747 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Customer called to report a western diamondback rattlesnake in their backyard. The snake had wedged itself between the house and a brick wall, with the bricks having a good size C shape gap against the house that it could climb up. It took a while but I was able to get the snake to go back down the wall and out the bottom where it had entered by using a hose. It was easy to secure after it exited the wall. The customer has a house near a wash in a new development with direct exposure to the wash. The backyard has a block wall combined with metal fencing that is exposed to the wash. They are good candidates for rattlesnake fencing and are interested in hearing from our fencing team. |

San Tan | 85143 | Mojave Rattlesnake | Homeowner in SanTan called about a Mojave Rattlesnake in his front yard. When I arrived the snake was stretched out in the rocks near his entryway. Not much desert around but small patches here and there. This snake’s days were likely numbered as it was pretty deep into the neighborhood so good to get it back out into proper habitat. Not much usable habitat around the area the snake was found; the yard was well-kept and landscaped. |

Phoenix | 85085 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The snake was found right off the concrete walking path by a security guard doing his rounds. There is a lot of construction in the area and with the recent rains, it would make sense for a snake to be moving through. Easy grab and relocation just northeast of the property into a packrat nest on one of the few undeveloped parcels in the area. |

Phoenix | 85048 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | This is a fence customer of ours. It is a preschool. This morning when checking the playground to make sure it was safe a teacher spotted the baby rattlesnake coiled on the turf. They weren't able to watch it and it wasn’t there when I arrived.

I poured water in the hole and the neonate came out. Behind the school, there is a little chunk of desert and even more across the street. |

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. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | I went to this home earlier in the day after the nanny and kids saw a snake near the front door. I met the homeowner there who did not see the snake either, he then showed me a blown-up, blurry picture of a rattlesnake. At that time I didn’t realize it was a baby who had a big meal in his belly. The snake was found again later in the day hiding in a small area under the door jam and behind a very thick doormat. I was able to secure it this time and safely relocate it. This house is surrounded by natural desert. |
