Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner was on her back patio when she saw a little snake head poking out from under a large pot on her back patio. There was a dying centipede near the neonate so I’m not sure if the little one envenomated it. I was able to get the little one out from under the pot. There was also a large shedded king snake skin under there. She said she saw the king a few months before she let it stay. This was large property with a lot of vegetation but it was all very clean. Next to the big pot, about 7 feet away, was a grill island that I believe the snake was staying under for winter. She is scheduled to get our fencing done already in the spring. There is some desert just behind her back wall. |

Scottsdale | 85254 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | This community had eyes on this snake for a while as it moved from the backyard of one home across a couple of driveways before coiling up in a bush in the front yard of another home. When I arrived there was a small crowd keeping an eye on the snake. The large male atrox was extremely calm and did not resist. Given where this home was, my only conclusion was that he swam across the canal to get to this neighborhood so I gave him a ride back. |

6:00 PM |
Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The client called the hotline with a report of a rattlesnake near the rear sliding glass door. The client and his small dogs passed within the immediate vicinity of the snake and it went unnoticed until the snake alerted by rattling. The client had retrieved a shovel with the intent to dispatch the snake, but decided it was “too large” to attempt to kill. The western diamondback was removed without incident and no further activity was found. The snake was likely overwintering in a drainage pipe that was up against the home in the side yard. The pipe was about a foot or two under the earth. This was only about ten feet from where the snake was seen and it was the only deep cover around. There is a lot of desert patches throughout this community. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Big rattlesnake by the front door. While en route, the snake moved a short distance, but the homeowner washed it, and it was an easy capture. They said they had another snake there recently, which indicates a den. Searched the property and adjacent public areas, and found nothing, which means their neighbors likely have an issue. Advised. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called about a rattlesnake that was on her back porch. When I arrived, the western diamondback had moved behind a large flower pot and was rattling. This was a huge yard and it was one of those neighborhoods in Scottsdale, where all the homes are equally spaced with desert all around them. Did a sweep of the yard and did not find any other snakes. The homeowner is curious about the fencing because the snake could easily enter through both gates on both sides of the house. Found a nice large desert area in between two neighborhoods about a mile south and placed the snake into a large packrat nest underneath a shady tree where the snake will be able to continue living its life. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner heard his dogs barking at something outside, so he went to investigate and found the two mating rattlesnakes by his pool equipment. The snakes tails were intertwined when I walked up but I’m not sure if they were actually locked up. I scooped them both up together. The pool equipment did have a hole going underneath the pad. Which could have been a spot one or both were hanging out before being seen. The home had a nice desert area right behind it but no other really good hiding place in the yard. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Rattlesnake on patio assisted living facility. By the time I got there, it had moved and disappeared. I searched the property and found a wooden pallet with remnants of a rodent nest under it covered in old cinderblocks. It looked like a den situation, so I used water and carefully disassembled the blocks. I found the snake under it and captured it. No others found, but searched the property and advised. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | A homeowner in Scottsdale called about a large rattlesnake curled up by her garage door. She spotted it from her car as she was coming home. Upon arrival, the snake had started to move away from the garage door and towards the desert, but I got there just in time to snag it before it could disappear. Home is right at the base of a large mountain covered in boulders and the front yard area looks like it could have many more rattlesnakes around, so I told her just to be careful especially this time of year as they are all emerging from the winter. She was completely understanding about where she lives. Snake was released into a large Pack rat nest in a nearby patch of desert away from homes. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner heard her dog barking at something and then she saw the rattlesnake in her backyard. She ran inside so she didn’t know where the snake went. I searched the backyard but the snake was right by a wall gap that led to a nice desert wash behind the home. So I went back there and saw the snake coming out of a pack rat nest but when I grabbed it another rattlesnake also slithered out. I was at this house two days ago for two mating rattlesnakes in the back yard which I caught. They also said one day ago they had a rattlesnake in their front yard. Likely one of these two I caught today. The home has a view fence and a nice desert wash behind them. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Sonoran Gophersnake | The homeowner had recently drained their pool and was in the process of refilling it when they saw the head of a snake poke out from an inlet at the bottom of the pool. As the water started to fill up the snake would move out further keeping its head above water. When I arrived, the gopher snake was most of the way out of the inlet and was captured and relocated into a nearby wash. The homeowner had a homeowner install snake fencing on their full-view fence with gaps in multiple places. The yard itself had plenty of low plants that any snake would enjoy. |

The home has a view fence and has a lot of great habitat around. They are right by the preserve. |

Scottsdale | 85259 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Customer called stating a rattlesnake was seen crawling under an AC pad and then soon after saw it coming back out from the same concrete pad. Upon arrival, several workers were watching the snake and it had crawled several feet away from the ac pad into a bush. I then attempted to capture the snake in a small bush but it went into a hole. I then flooded the hole out and eventually it came back out for capture. This is a fence customer so his backyard is fenced but the home sits between 2 washes and has good habitat overall. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The church was having a stack of doors moved out of their back storage area and one of the workers noticed a small baby Rattlesnake curled up outside of them, the worker used a nearby shovel to scoop it into an empty dry paint bucket. The church is on a large property adjacent to a great natural habitat on the back side where the storage area and snake was found. I took some time to look around their storage areas and peak into their storage sheds for any further snakes. No other snakes were found, and the baby rattlesnake was driven shortly up the road to the next safest natural habitat away from buildings. |

Scottsdale | 85255 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | Staff called the hotline with a report of a western diamondback traveling from the pool area along a building. I arrived at the appropriate building and the staff observers immediately pointed out the snake. It was in a semi defensive posture and clearly agitated. The snake was removed without incident. A courtesy walk through of the area resulted in no additional snakes removed, however, there was a highly decomposed section of vertebrae and skin from what appeared to be a colubrid. |

Scottsdale | 85266 | Western Diamondback Rattlesnake | The homeowner called with a report of a rattlesnake in the pool. The homeowner was envenomated by a neonate western diamondback this last November and hospitalized. The snake was posted behind the waterfall feature of the pool when I arrived. I was able to remove it without incident. A comprehensive search of the property was conducted; no additional snakes were removed. I highly recommend snake fencing to these folks given the incident that occurred last year and their very open backyard with plentiful reptile resources nearby and on property. The client also has 2 dogs that I recommended they get training for. |
