Cave Creek | 85331 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner found the snake on their back patio while watering plants. When I arrived, the snake was still coiled on the patio next to a freshly watered potted plant, apparently using the cover to escape the sun and likely enjoying the water draining from the bottom of the planter. |

Surprise | 85387 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner went to grab an Amazon package by the front door when she spotted a young rattlesnake coiled in the corner behind a pot. The property didn’t have much vegetation, so the patio was the shadiest spot. The home is across from a large stretch of open desert. |

Scottsdale | 85260 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowner looked out her back window and saw a snake wrapped around a bird, constricting it. She then lost sight of the snake and called us, believing it was a rattlesnake. It turned out to be a gophersnake, which had climbed into a tall bush just behind her fence. I was able to locate and safely capture it, and it did have a bolus. The property has a significant amount of desert habitat across the street. |

Mesa | 85207 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner had a pool guy out, and he said that as he was walking in the back gate, he saw a rattlesnake making its way out of the backyard. This was an odd time to see it because it was 100 degrees out and the turf was very hot. I checked her backyard first, and she didn’t have much cover. I then went to the neighbor’s courtyard, which was very close, and found the snake coiled by their front door. The homes have a lot of desert just across the street. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner went to grab a package off the front porch and was surprised by a rattlesnake that had decided to use it for shade. The front of the house was wide open with many access points, though the backyard had already been protected with rattlesnake fencing. The snake had just eaten something three times its size and was not very nimble, so it was an easy capture and relocation into a large pack rat nest west of the property. |

Mesa | 85207 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Homeowner called about a rattlesnake in their backyard. The Western Diamondback had settled into a small divot in the dirt between two large bushes. The home backs directly onto open desert and the yard is not fenced, so the snake likely wandered in while searching for shade and water, which this yard has plenty of. The yard has many bushes and flowing water features but is well maintained, and the homeowners understand their situation: they love wildlife but do not want venomous snakes in their yard. The snake was hiked back into the desert behind their home and released in deep cover in a wash. |

Mesa | 85212 | Mojave Rattlesnake | A tenant Mesa called to report a snake curled up outside their front door. They snapped a photo and sent it to me, and I was able to identify it as a Mojave Rattlesnake. This is an unusual area for a rattlesnake—there are some patches of desert to the south of the apartments, but they’re currently being developed. The snake was likely pushed out of that habitat and ended up at the complex. Unfortunately, this meant I had to find an alternative release site, as the only remaining habitat within its home range is now gone. I transported the snake a few miles east to open desert and released it into a large creosote mound near a wash, where it will hopefully acclimate and live a long life. |

Cave Creek | 85331 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner was out by her barn when a rattlesnake startled her inside the barn. She tried to grab it with some tongs, but it was pretty large and she couldn’t get a secure hold. When I arrived, the snake was still coiled up by the barn. The property has a large, open yard, along with a barn that stores hay and a large shed. There is also some natural desert surrounding the home and the neighboring properties. |

Phoenix | 85044 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowner walked out his front door and saw the snake on his patio. He knew it was harmless but wanted it gone. It ended up going under a bush in his front yard and that’s where I got it. The home has a little desert hill behind it and is also not far from the preserve. |

Sun City | 85373 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Dispatched to a call in Peoria/Sun City for a snake in a backyard. While speaking to the customer on the phone, she reported that she was watering her plants when she noticed a coiled “diamondback” underneath one of them. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the customer and led into the east-facing backyard, where she pointed out the snake’s location. I observed a juvenile Western Diamondback Rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) in an ambush position underneath a hibiscus with a drip line. I used large tongs to safely capture the snake and place it in a bucket without incident. The snake may have been sleeping, as it did not rattle at any point. The customer stated that she first saw the snake in the same spot where I captured it, while watering that particular plant. She mentioned that she normally does not hand-water that plant but decided to do so this morning. She also reported that the snake did not rattle or move; she simply noticed it lying there. I conducted an inspection of the rest of the backyard and found no additional snakes. There is a catwalk running to the south of the property from the street to a community pond located east of the home. One small portion of the fence has chicken wire attached. I pointed this area out to the customer and offered a free fencing quote, which they accepted. This house is in an unusual location for C. atrox activity, as it is in the interior of the neighborhood, with approximately five rows of houses in every direction before reaching any desert habitat. I noted that the neighborhood is enclosed by solid block walls with no obvious drainage holes, and is bordered by two main roads to the north and west. For a snake to reach this property from natural desert, it would have to travel a considerable distance. While not impossible, this seems unlikely. Given the estimated age of the snake, I suspect it may have been born somewhere within the neighborhood and has managed to survive there for a little over a year. I do not believe the snake had been in the yard for long, as I saw no signs of denning. I believe it may have entered the yard from either the north or south side via drainage gaps or a gate. The customers stated they have never seen a snake in the 10 years they have owned the home. Considering the home’s location, I do not think it is unreasonable to assume this may have been the first snake to enter their yard. |

Paradise Valley | 85253 | Kingsnake | Kingsnake found in irrigation box in the backyard of a Paradise Valley home with dense foliage, a pool, and a garden. I inspected the rest of the yard and did not find any additional snakes. The homeowner was not aware that their fencing is out of warranty, so I sent the information to the fencing team. |

Phoenix | 85083 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | A rattlesnake rattled at a homeowner as she was picking up a package on her doorstep. They called us and tried to watch the snake through their window, but it eluded them. After checking the perimeter of the house, we found a small hole in front that we suspected the snake could be hiding in. We decided to carefully flush it with a garden hose. The snake’s head popped out, and I was able to safely relocate it. |

By the time I arrived, the snake had moved to the front yard and was resting in the shade. I was able to capture and safely relocate it. The homeowners also expressed interest in fencing. They have several gates that need to be fenced, as well as the entire back wall, which currently has hardware cloth along it, but it isn’t secure enough to be considered snake-proof. |

There were a couple of grassy areas and a large canal nearby; otherwise, the area was all homes. |

Tucson | 85718 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The small diamondback was on the porch in a pot and had likely been attracted by the extensive vegetation surrounding the property and within the walls. There were many cool, moist places to hide behind pots or under bushes and branches. I recommended they have their fencing inspected because the area near the gate had large gaps and other issues. |
