10:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call of a rattlesnake in front porch from a previous customer. Arrived to home and was greeted by the customer in the driveway. Customer stated that as he left the front door to go to his car he heard a small “tick” and noticed the snake on the front door. Customer kept eyes on the snake until I arrived. I noticed a large juvenile atrox underneath some hiding to the right of the front door. Utilized large tweezers to capture snake as hit still seemed almost neonate as there were only 2 buttons. It seemed large for its age. Asked customer if he’d like me to inspect and he seemed indifferent as his home is almost entirely surrounded by habitat. I offered to inspect garage and he agreed. Garage was cluttered with signs of rodent activity all over (as well as the front porch where snake was found). Found no snakes upon brief inspection but I didn’t inspect it as thoroughly as I could have. Customer didn’t seem concerned. Since home was completely surrounded by habitat and no back fence it did not seem appropriate to offer fencing quote.

4:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake Received dispatch and called customer stating I was 30minutes away. Was greeted by husband at the side gate and he escorted me into the backyard. He stated that he saw a diamond pattern but was not able to see the tail. Customer stated that he did not hear a rattle. Informed the customer that I believed there was a good change it could be a gophersnake due to the area and where the house was situated in the neighborhood. The neighborhood was amongst a golf course and though there were washes that ran through it they were landscaped and manicured. There was no real deep desert, so to speak, that was nearby. Customer informed me where the snake was and I went into the smaller shaded side yard on the east side of the house. Against the house was a bicycle that was covered by a plastic tarp. I lifted the tarp utilizing my tongs and immediately noticed the medium sized gophersnake curled underneath the eve of the stucco wall. Used hands to capture snake and bucket with no issues. Snake was mellow and did not hiss once. Once bucketed I performed an inspection of the rest of the yard. No other snakes found. I informed the customer that I believed the snake entered though the drainage blocks of the cinder block wall on the east side of the home and was likely seeking refuge from the mid-afternoon sun. Customer stated that he had a coachwhip stuck on a glue trap some years back but has never seen a rattlesnake. I informed customer that that was not surprising and that due to where his home was situated in the neighborhood I believed that the chance of a rattlesnake encounter at this property was low but certainly not zero. Provided customer with education on differences in colubrid snakes and rattlesnakes. There were several children at the home who wished to see the snake and with the customer’s permission I took the snake out of the bucket with hook and eased it into my hands. I showed the children the gophersnake from a safe distance as they did not want to touch it.

2025-05-18
3:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake This homeowner called about a large rattlesnake in their backyard. Upon arrival it was determined that it was just a large gopher snake, however, they still wanted it removed. There were a few entry points in the side gates of the backyard. The back wall had some drainage holes, but they were all covered with fine mesh. The backyard was very large, with some grass and a lot of shady bushes… multiple good hiding spots for any reptile. The snake was taken across the street and hiked into the nearby patch of desert where it was released into a large packrat nest above a small wash and away from homes.
2025-05-20
6:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner spotted this western diamondback scurrying across the backyard while they were having dinner. By the time I arrived, the snake had gone through a drain block on the front side of the wall and was hanging out by the wall. The homeowners “snake fence” had large rectangular holes that all kinds of things could have gotten through. The back fence backed up to a wash which was the likely entry point.
2025-05-21
10:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw the snake slither across her driveway in the front yard. She said some quail were harassing it, and it moved into a nearby rosemary bush. I found the snake coiled up under that rosemary. She has extensive rosemary in the front yard and a bird feeder. She has our fencing installed in the backyard and courtyard. The community retains natural desert landscaping throughout.
2025-05-26
11:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner noticed she had about 17 quail eggs in a pot in the backyard. Over the last few days, she realized they had been disappearing. This morning, she saw a gophersnake slither away from the pot and into a nearby drain pipe in the ground. I started to flood the pipe, but the water just kept going and I wasn’t sure where the pipe ended. After about 15 minutes, the gophersnake finally showed its head, and several minutes later it fully emerged. It was a smaller gophersnake and did not have eggs in its belly, so I’m not sure who else had been snacking. I checked the rest of the yard, which was within our fencing, and didn’t see anything.

7:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Customer called about rattlesnake in backyard patio. Arrived and found yearling western diamondback attempting to take cover in a small statue. The back patio is filled with plants so much you can barely walk around. Very likely due to neighborhood dynamics that snake was born nearby and has been living here most of if not all its life

6:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner spotted this rattlesnake hanging out underneath a bush in her yard while she was doing yard work. One side of the property had open fencing all the way to the ground, which was the likely entry point. This was our second visit to this property this year. The homeowner understands the risks associated with desert living and has no problem with the snakes coming and going. This one had decided to hang out for a while, so it was time to go. It was relocated just outside the neighborhood into a large pack rat nest underneath a bush.

4:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This home is a previous fence customer whose warranty has run out. Upon inspection, I could not identify a clear point where the snake had penetrated the fence or gate. The only questionable area was the overhanging trees from the neighbor’s wide-open yard that extended into the property. With a known pack rat problem, my assumption is that the snake saw potential prey from the branches of the overhanging trees and went for it. The snake was found stuck in a rodent box with its head out one side and tail out the other. There was a snap in the middle pinning the snake in place. I met Bryan to hand off the snake (still in

9:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Customer is out of town for the next month but would like a fencing estimate….. This western diamondback was seen by the homeowner while out in the yard picking up after their dog. The snake was curled up next to a bike tire. There were small gaps by the gate and the back of the yard also had a few openings but I believe it came in through the gap between the house and the wall. The yard was full of snake loving landscape, low bushes with debris under them. Quick easy capture and hiked into the desert for a release into a pack rat nest. Tried to give him water but he wasn’t interested.
2025-06-07
2:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Nightsnake What started as a non venomous snake in a glue trap turned into three non venemous snakes in a glue trap. The three desert nightsnakes entered through a gap in the garage corner where glue traps were waiting. Thanks to Apryl’s notes I brought vegetable oil which allowed me to free all three snakes.

8:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The customer had already been visited twice by Marissa for a reported “rattlesnake.” Today, the homeowner saw another snake on his back patio, and I ran over since I was only a mile away. The “rattlesnake” turned out to be a feisty, bright orange gopher snake that likely entered the property through the back view fence, where I found three pack rat nests. I gave the snake a quick trip out to the desert and released it into a new pack rat nest.

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.

The snake was safely captured. I then searched the front yard thoroughly and found no additional snakes.

10:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake in a living room. Customer stated she was waiting in her backyard along with her dog and would not go back inside until the snake was gone. Arrived at home and met customer on the front porch. Customer pointed in the general area she last saw the snake. Customer stated that two hours prior she has her back door propped open for her elderly dog with mobility issues. Door was open for approximately 10 minutes. Later in the evening she noticed the snake behind her couch near a coffee table. She said snake rattled and was about “a yard in length” and approximately 2” in diameter. Customer said she began coaxing her dog off of the couch and went to the backyard. Customer stated the last she saw the snake it was moving towards the dining area which was just to the right of the front entrance of the home. Entered home and inspected it in its entirety several times. Customer kept floor largely free of anything other than furniture which made seeing every inch of the floor possible. I didn’t have to move many items. While in the kitchen I checked both sides of the refrigerator and saw nothing. I looked as best I could underneath the refrigerator but still saw no snake. Also checked front and backyards. Backyard was large but mostly free of places a snake could seek refuge long term. Back yard surrounded by block walls with a couple of spaces between neighboring walls that something could get through. Wall in one of the side yards had small drainage hole (I believe snake entered backyard through here). Gate in other side yard was older and wooden and would have been difficult for a snake to get through but not impossible. Informed customer that there was no snake in the house but if she saw it within the next three days to call us and we would remove it for free. I left the property and received a text from customer about 20 minutes later saying she thinks the snake is behind the refrigerator. Returned to the home and this time noticed the head of an atrox peeking out from behind the refrigerator. Noticed it on the side next to the counter. I moved the refrigerator out enough to get a visual on the full snake. Used tongs to capture and bucket with no issue.

2025-07-14
1:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A homeowner in Cave Creek called about a western diamondback rattlesnake curled up on his front patio. There is a large wash across the street and many new homes in the area, so the snakes are likely returning to their usual summer spots and finding houses there now. The homeowner’s yard was fairly well kept; however, there were a few large lantana plants that I recommended he keep trimmed and well maintained. The snake was released into a large packrat nest in the wash across the street, away from homes but still within its home range.
2025-07-17
9:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had captured a Western Diamondback in a Havahart trap and had already transferred it to a bucket by the time I arrived. I quickly transferred it to my bucket and released it west of the property in a pack rat nest next to a wash.
2025-07-19
9:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The snake was in the backyard along the view fence. The fence had snake fencing on it, installed by the owner, and the home owner watched the snake come in through a gap in the corner of the fencing. I advised the owner that we offer fencing services, or that they at least need to fix gaps like that.
