3:30 PM		 Phoenix 85028 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake Homeowner called saying he had a rattlesnake sitting on his patio by the front door. The young speckled rattlesnake was found curled up and never moved or made a sound during the removal. The home was located in the foothills of a mountain range.
2026-03-25
8:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The callers were renting an Airbnb in the Cave Creek area very nearby the main preserve. They reported to have come out the sliding glass door to the back pool area to view the stars, and within 30 minutes of walking back, the young rattlesnake was curled up in front of the door they had just come out of. When I arrived the snake was still in the same position and easily captured, as I inspected the area about 10 feet from the sliding glass door was a large landscaping rock with holes going under it by which I saw a snake shed outside of it, and explained my suspicion that's where the snake likely came from. While further inspecting the back yard there were several rodent boxes laid out and lots of rodent droppings in various locations along with many large landscaping rocks. The home is centered in optimal desert habitat along side a preserve with several new homes under construction in the area.

10:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was trimming up some plants in her backyard when she heard a rustling and looked down and saw the rattlesnake just slithering by. She kept her eye on it and it just stayed in the same area while I drove there. I grabbed the snake and looked around. She did have some heavy vegetation, but she was also trimming up her plants as we spoke. I did not see any other snakes. She has a view fence in the back, which is higher off the ground, and one gate. She has a drainage that runs by her house that leads to little sections of desert, but not much desert is left in this area.
2026-03-24
10:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowners saw what they thought was a rattlesnake slither behind a stack of firewood in their backyard. It ended up being a Sonoran Gophersnake but they still asked that I relocate it. This home was in a Cave Creek neighborhood near a golf course. It had a lot of landscaping, a pool, and a large firewood pile. There was not a lot of easy access in or out of the yard other than from the gap under the large double-doored gate. The homeowners were interested in having the fence team give an estimate to seal this gap as they have had a rattlesnake in the pool filter in the past.

2026-03-24
2:00 PM		 Phoenix 85042 Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake The homeowner called for a rattlesnake in his front yard. The speckled rattlesnake was coiled on top of some grates that were up against the home in a nice shady area. The grate had a bunch of stacked rocks underneath it. The home was on South Mountain Preserve with a lot of natural vegetation and rocks around. This yard was very big and not fenced.
2026-03-24
4:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was moving some things around in the garage when he was startled by a rattlesnake rattling at him from about four feet up on a utility shelf. His wife was also in the garage and said that she had been unknowingly walking past the snake for almost an hour. This Cave Creek home was surrounded by a lot of other homes and was not close to any native desert. However, like many of the other neighborhoods in this area, it has many narrow drainages running throughout. making for a somewhat save path to travel. The garage was full. It had a lot of shelving, and a lot of containers and boxes stacked high and deep. Although it's been warm for a few weeks now there is a chance that this snake was still not far from where it spent the winter, and this garage would have been perfect for it. The homeowner did say that the garage door was open for about an hour yesterday, so if the snake did come from outside, it may have been through the open door. Once the snake was in the bucket, I searched the rest of the garage as best as I could, but I did not find any other snakes. I recommended that they use caution when moving the remaining boxes.
2026-03-23
10:00 PM		 Tucson 85712 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called for what they believed to be a rattlesnake in their front yard, upon arrival it was a large gophersnake.
2026-03-23
3:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85258 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a non-venomous snake in a wood pile in the backyard. When I arrived the snake had just gone back under the wood. As we were moving the wood the gophersnake came out and I snagged it. The yard did have some heavy vegetation and citrus trees. Along with some wood and junk piles. The home had a drainage area next to it that led straight to the reservation.

2026-03-22
10:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake on the front porch of the customer’s neighbor’s home. The customer indicated the person living in the home was elderly and out of town. The customer also indicated they would like to pay for removal even though it was not their property. Arrived at the home, and the customer’s son was watching the snake with a flashlight. I observed an adult atrox in ambush beneath the eave of the front facade (eastward-facing) and tucked behind an aloe. Used a hook to move aloe leaves out of the way and tongs to capture the snake. Once I had the snake captured with tongs I used two hands in the tongs to safely bucket it. I then performed a quick inspection of the front yard and also the front yard of the caller. I noted a juvenile Sonoran gophersnake under the eave of their home and provided education on it. The customer opted to leave it. No other snakes were noted on either property.

10:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake on the back porch. Arrived at home and the customer escorted me to the backyard area. The customer pointed out through a window where the snake was and I observed an adult atrox in a defensive posture rattling. Snake was on top of a small flight of steps that led to a door inside the home. Snake was very defensive and did not stop rattling for the duration of my time with it. Snake struck tongs as I captured it and struck out twice when I had it bucketed. Performed an inspection of the back yard. The yard was very large with topography. Home sat at the bottom of a granite mountain. Pointed out to the customer several areas of concern for overgrown vegetation that was irrigated near the pool area and provided education on snake behavior and encouraged the customer to keep plants trimmed or eliminate them. Walked around the fence line, and I noticed new holes. There is an area where the fencing stops as the wall intersects with a giant boulder on the east end of the yard. Fencing material just kind of folded back into the open desert where a snake could easily enter. I offered the customer a free fencing quote and they obliged. The customer shared concerns they had about their small dog and I stressed the importance of prevention.

1:00 PM		 Tucson 85718 Gila Monster Found on the back patio in the foothills that bordered a manmade wash through a retirement-style community.
2026-03-22
9:00 PM		 Tucson 85750 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This homeowner called regarding a rattlesnake she found lounging around her courtyard. This was her first rattlesnake sighting on this property, and she called us immediately to come grab it. When I arrived, the snake was coiled in the corner in the same spot the homeowner initially found it. I secured the snake in the bucket and released it into a deep rodent burrow in a nearby wash.
2026-03-22
9:30 PM		 Phoenix 85044 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Apartment complex at the base of South Mountain called about a Western Diamondback that was cruising around one of their buildings. When I arrived the snake was on the move and halfway under a bush. This place is right on South Mountain and they get plenty of snakes so the tenants and maintenance workers know the drill. Snake relocated into deep cover in a wash in the preserve.
2026-03-21
9:00 AM		 Scottsdale 85255 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This western diamondback had been visiting this McDowell Mountain Ranch home on and off for the past week. The house sat on the end of the street with a wide open ravine right next to it. The homeowner knew that meant he might have frequent visitors.
2026-03-21
10:00 AM		 Tucson 85747 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Large adult male.
2026-03-21
11:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The caller reported a rattlesnake under the cars in the garage. I arrived and the snake had moved in between some boxes in the garage. I was able to remove it without incident. A courtesy inspection of the yard was completed. During the inspection, I noted a very deep rodent burrow just outside the garage side entry door. A nearby hose was used to attempt to draw anything that may be in there, however, nothing emerged. A fairly recent shedding was found in a lantana bush just under the hose bib in the rear yard. It appears to belong to a juvenile WDB. It is possible this snake was overwintering in the rodent burrow. As such, I collapsed the burrow to the best of my ability.
2026-03-21
1:30 PM		 Scottsdale 85266 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The customer spotted a western diamondback underneath a rug on his back porch while taking the garbage out. He saw the head pop up and the tongue flicker. When I arrived the snake was no longer under the rug or anywhere near the patio. After a long game of hide and seek, I found him on the side of the house between a stack of roof tiles and the block fence. The snake was relocated north of the property into a packrat nest that was right underneath a large tree.
2026-03-21
3:30 PM		 Oro Valley 85737 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Adult male in a drainage and was trapped.
2026-03-21
5:00 PM		 Casa Grande 85122 Sonoran Sidewinder The homeowner called about a small rattlesnake curled up by her AC unit. When I arrived, I found the Sidewinder in the same spot. Temps are about 105 right now so this shady area was likely keeping him alive. Home is right up against the open desert, and the back wall is cinderblock, so the snake was likely just stuck in the yard and unable to find its way back into the desert. Gate gaps and holes in the block wall for drainage are easy access points to this yard and likely how the snake entered. Took the snake back out into the desert nearby and placed it into the deep cover of a rodent hole at the base of a creosote bush.
2026-03-20
7:00 AM		 Tucson 85712 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Snake has a crush injury near the tail. Survival estimated at 50/50.
2026-03-20
1:30 PM		 Peoria 85383 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a Sonoran Gophersnake hiding in some of the landscaping in his backyard. This home was situated in a typical Peoria neighborhood, with many small drainages running throughout. He told me that he usually gets one or two Gophersnakes per year, but never any rattlesnakes. The snake likely came in through one of the block drains or under the gap under the gate.
2026-03-19
8:30 AM		 Surprise 85387 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A crew member at a construction site was moving materials and unknowingly came dangerously close to a rattlesnake. They let the snake stay on site, but the following day, when it was still there, they decided to call us. This was a typical construction site, with piles of building materials, refuse, and large containers. It sat on the edge of a development and had no barrier to the open native desert to the west. No other snakes were found.
2026-03-19
9:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This public library, which is surrounded by desert gets rattlesnakes often. We just got three away from the building a day ago. Today they had a young rattlesnake coiled on their back patio.
2026-03-19
11:00 AM		 Anthem 85086 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called after seeing a rattlesnake on his shady front porch. It had moved slightly into some nearby landscaping by the time I had arrived. The home is far from any development and surrounded by mountainous, native desert. It is a large property with a lot of structure and landscaping, but no irrigation system. There is no block wall bordering the home and very surprisingly, he told me that this is only the second snake he's seen since 2018. The temperature of the shaded porch was significantly cooler than the ground just beyond. I did not find any other snakes.

2026-03-18
8:00 PM		 Scottsdale 85266 Mojave Rattlesnake The homeowner spotted this baby Mojave next to her garage door (outside) after pulling into the garage. The house had a wash on the west side of it and open desert just south which is where I believe this guy came from. The snake had moved to the same rock next to the driveway by the time I arrived and this is where I found it. Safely captured and relocated south of the property into a packrat nest.
2026-03-18
6:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Early this morning, the homeowner walked out the front door and noticed the baby rattlesnake coiled under an elevated pot. The front yard was very well maintained, and the backyard had our fencing. There was desert in and around the home throughout the community and more desert down the road on the outside of the community.
2026-03-18
8:30 AM		 Phoenix 85085 Sonoran Gophersnake The crew at a water treatment facility in North Phoenix called about a rattlesnake on the property. It turned out to be a Sonoran Gopher snake, but the crew thought that it would be safer for the snake to be relocated. I looked around the rest of the facility, which had a ton of great cover. There were piles of large rocks, stacks of pallets and PVC pipe, and several con-ex structures that had exterior doors left open. There is virtually no barrier preventing any snake from the adjacent native desert from entering or exiting the property at will. No additional snakes were found.
2026-03-18
11:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a rattlesnake that she saw in her side yard hiding behind her trash cans. It turned out to be a Sonoran Gophersnake, which she wanted removed regardless. This home in Cave Creek was near a golf course and had a view fence overlooking a narrow drainage, and had chicken wire about 24inches high, installed along the base. She explained that it was never meant to keep snakes out, but to keep her 3 young beagles in. The backyard was well-manicured with landscaping and a pool. The front had two very tall, dense lantanas. I captured the snake and looked for others but did not find any. The homeowner is very interested in a fencing quote as well as getting a dog training refresher.
2026-03-18
1:30 PM		 Phoenix 85048 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw her delivery driver, kind of tossed her package and she was wondering why he didn’t just set it down when she went to grab the package she got rattled at by two rattlesnakes by her front door. That’s when she called me. The snake's tails were intertwined, but they were not fully locked up. I was able to get both of them in the bucket. She had a desert wash behind her house across the street and more desert beyond that and a desert little hillside on the other side of the road.
2026-03-18
2:30 PM		 Phoenix 85085 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A crew at a wastewater transfer station was moving a conex and discovered a rattlesnake hiding underneath. I had been to this facility earlier in the day to remove a gopher snake and had searched the property but did not find any other snakes. I mentioned to them that there may be snakes sheltering under the conex and they told me that they would be moving it soon. Once the conex was gone, the snake began to look for shade. It was just over 100F degrees outside and the only shade the snake could find was the tiny shadow of a 2X4 frame lying on the ground. By the time I arrived, the snake was not doing well. I put it in the bucket with some water, but it was not moving. I decided to bring the snake home with me for the night to see if it could be revived. If it is well enough in the morning, I will look for an appropriate spot for relocation.
2026-03-18
2:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was working from her office when she spotted this adult western diamondback hanging out in her office. She said she had seen a snake in her garage within the past day and assumed this is the same one. I offered to check out the garage and laundry room but she declined. Typically, these indoor rattlesnakes turn out to be night snakes or gophers so seeing this adult western diamondback was a surprise. Relocated south of the property into a packrat nest surrounded by bushes and a tree.
2026-03-18
5:30 PM		 Tucson 85718 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Management called because a snake had been seen on a sidewalk by a resident. They had laid out a cone but the snake was gone when I arrived. After some investigation, I found the adult female Western Diamondback Rattlesnake in a Dalea bush a few yards away.
2026-03-18
7:30 PM		 Tucson 85641 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake This homeowner was startled by a loud rattling sound when he walked into his garage. He quickly realized it was the distinct sound of a rattlesnake. He looked underneath his shelving unit and found an adult Western Diamondback Rattlesnake coiled in the corner. He called us immediately to come remove it. Once I arrived, I safely got the snake into the bucket and relocated it to a nearby habitat into a rodent burrow. The homeowners told me they left the garage door open for about an hour or so today, but almost always keep it closed. This shows how quickly a rattlesnake can find a comfy spot in your garage if the door is left open in a relatively short period of time- and why it’s so important to keep it closed.
2026-03-18
10:00 PM		 Mesa 85207 Whiptail Lizard The homeowner called about a snake in a glue trap. Upon arrival, I discovered that it was actually two whiptail lizards, and because one of the lizard’s tails was sticking out of the glue trap I could see how someone unfamiliar with snakes could mistake that for a snake tail. Spray olive oil to the rescue, and 10 mins later both lizards were free and placed into a small rodent hole in the nearby desert.
2026-03-17
4:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was doing some work around the yard when she stumbled on this mating pair of diamondbacks. The property had a view fence at the back that went all the way to the ground which backed up to a wash. When I arrived the snakes were coiled together but weren’t locked up. They were released together into a packrat nest that sat up against a wash.
2026-03-17
10:00 PM		 Phoenix 85054 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake I was contacted by a pest control service on behalf of one of their clients to remove a rattlesnake from a large office campus. A young Western Diamondback was seen by an employee on a sidewalk next to a busy street. She covered the snake with a bucket and waited for me to arrive. The campus is large with multiple buildings and a lot of concrete surfaces, but it\'s also very well landscaped and is surrounded by a small amount of native desert.
2026-03-17
9:30 AM		 Apache Junction 85120 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner called about a snake that slithered into a cactus in her backyard. She thought it was a rattlesnake because it did rattle. When we got there, we discovered it was a harmless gopher snake. She was cool enough and let us relocate the snake in her yard. She lived on 2.5 acres and had some natural desert all around her house. There were a few pack rat nests on the property and she had chickens but she didn’t have a fenced yard it was all open.
2026-03-17
9:00 AM		 Marana 85743 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Several young rattlesnakes seen inside the garage about 5 days ago.
2026-03-17

2026-03-17
12:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The customer called for a rattlesnake crossing her driveway. She watched it until we got there. When we got there, the snake was under a bush near a drainage. She is a fence customer of ours so her yard is well protected and both front and back yards were very clean. There is a desert in and around her home but very fragmented.
2026-03-17
5:30 PM		 Tucson 85742 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Young of last year.
2026-03-17
5:30 PM		 Phoenix 85044 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A homeowner in Ahwatukee called about a rattlesnake in his yard. When I arrived the western diamondback was curled up in a corner of the backyard wall. The home is at the base of South Mountain and surrounded by desert with a large hill directly behind the house. There are also a couple of large rock piles and wood piles just on the other side of the fence, so no surprise there was a rattlesnake at this property. I hiked the snake back into the preserve and placed it into the deep cover of a rock pile at the base of a hill with a large drainage just below.
2026-03-17
9:00 PM		 Fountain Hills 85268 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called about a rattlesnake in a fenced yard. The western diamondback was curled up under a chair on the back patio when I arrived. The fencing looks intact, the only thing I can think of is maybe the fence was propped open and the snake was nearby and entered that way. Snake relocated into a large packrat nest in the nearby desert.
