12:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The rattlesnake was in backyard on the patio. The yard had a view fence and only half of it had old snake fencing. The owner is interested in getting the yard fenced properly.
2025-07-22
12:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had landscapers out, and they discovered the snake in the backyard. The snake was just off the back patio, coiled up in a shady corner against the home. The yard was well-kept, probably because the landscapers had just been there. They had a view fence with some desert behind them. This community has desert between the homes and several washy areas that split the homes.

1:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner spotted this western diamondback curled up beneath a backyard bush. The property had desert on three sides and gaps under multiple gates. My guess is that it came through the back gate, which was right next to a wash. The snake was easily secured, given some water, and released.
2025-07-24
10:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw a rattlesnake go into a hole by his pool. This snake had been seen three days in a row around the property. I grabbed a hose and put it in the hole, walked over to turn the water on, and by the time I got back the snake had already vacated the hole and darted into another hole nearby. I then started flooding that hole and, while waiting, walked around the pool deck. Lo and behold, the snake was at eye level up in a palm tree. The home sits on 5 acres, is surrounded by desert, and clearly has an extensive underground tunnel system. I was able to grab the snake out of the palm and release it nearby into a pack rat nest.

10:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Received a call about a rattlesnake in a backyard. Customers stated they believed the snake had just eaten something because it was slow and fat. I advised them it could be a gravid snake. When I arrived at the home, I was escorted to the backyard by the customer. They said they first noticed the snake stretched out in the yard while taking out the garbage. They also pointed out a large, dead spiny lizard they believed the snake was about to eat. They showed me where they last saw the snake move underneath a large cycad near the pool. I did a quick perimeter search of the backyard first before inspecting underneath the cycad. I used a hook to lift up the foliage of the cycad and noted a large atrox in ambush against the plant. I used the hook in an attempt to drag the snake out from underneath the plant before using tongs to capture it. The snake moved around the cycad, and I used tongs to capture it and the hook for support in case the snake was gravid. Once in the bucket, I looked at the snake and believed it was just a larger male. The rattle appeared to have been broken off about halfway down. The snake had a mellow demeanor. I inspected the rest of the backyard and noted several areas of concern: overgrown bushes off the back patio, several large vines that had grown over three walls, and a shed with several pieces of pottery stacked up against it. I pointed all of these out to the customer. Given the apparent age of the snake, I informed the customers it may have been in the yard for some time and encouraged landscaping for all the plants I identified. The only opening where a snake could get through that I observed was the gate on the eastern side yard. Otherwise, the gate seems difficult for snakes to get through. Drainage holes in the bricks were covered by 1/4” mesh. I offered the customer a free quote for fencing, and they agreed. There is a desert wash just one house over to the northeast.

11:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The snake was released into a rock cluster in a large wash with stands of cottonwood and mesquite.
2025-07-29
8:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake One of the snakes went deep in the pipe and she couldn’t get it out. The homeowner called me today because he saw a snake by the area she got the one yesterday. While watching it another western diamondback slithered next to the other in the shady corner up against the house. The snakes were trying to get back in the pipe but it had been filled in and they didn’t know it. The homeowner called was on a large lot on a desert hillside with a large wash running right by the property. There was more desert than homes out this way.

9:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Sonoran Gophersnake The homeowner saw the snake in her garden a few days ago and thought it would leave, but she saw it coiled up against the garden bed today, so she gave us a call. The snake was photographed in the garden 30 minutes before I arrived. When I got there, the snake was not where she had last seen it. I did a complete search of the garden and the rest of the yard and didn’t find the snake. I did find a young gophersnake in the garden that she allowed to stay. The home has small pockets of desert around it and state land about a quarter mile away.
2025-08-12
12:00 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake A man called about a rattlesnake on his back patio. When I arrived, the snake had moved a short distance to shelter under an outdoor couch. Once I had it in the bucket, I walked around his yard to look for other snakes and possible points of entry. The property is in the middle of a large development but has a natural drainage running right behind the house. The homeowner has some 1/4‑inch fence installed, but I found a few areas where it was compromised and a snake could have easily entered. He said he would like to be contacted for fencing. No other snakes were found.

11:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Western Diamondback found on porch in Cave Creek. The property has had snakes before and has view fencing/chain-link fencing around the perimeter. I left them our RS card and contact information if they would like fencing services or additional relocation calls in the future. They have done dog training with Rattlesnake Ranch AZ and were happy with his services. They stated they are going to go back for a training tune-up, as the dog did react and avoid the snake but was also a bit curious about it.

9:30 AM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner saw the snake by her front door step. It then slithered over to the neighbors yard where it hung out by the garage until I snagged it.

2025-09-09
12:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner had her dogs out in her courtyard this morning when they were rattled at by a rattlesnake under a nearby lantana. Her dogs are snake-trained, so they backed away and went inside. She tried to squirt it with a hose and poke it to make it leave, but after a while, when it didn’t budge, she called us. That lantana was the only shady plant in the courtyard and the entire front yard besides the porch. She has a lot of land, but it doesn’t have much on it and is very hot. While searching around, I found a coachwhip shed and a gopher snake shed. The home has some desert around it in between homes with big lots, so it is very hard to access. I went a little further to a more wide-open area for the relocation.
2025-09-09
8:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was out feeding the horses and saw this Western Diamondback stretched out in front of the barn. By the time I arrived, the snake had moved into a horse stable and taken refuge under a cart. The property was wide open to the desert, so it could have come from anywhere. Once captured, the snake made it clear it was not interested in a ride, as it rattled the entire time up until its release into a pack rat nest.

Their dog had alerted them to at least one snake last night, and she saw one this morning in a different location. Upon arrival, the rattlesnake was curled up next to the gutter and hose on the side of the house, and I was able to secure it quickly. After a quick survey of the backyard, I determined that there were no additional rattlesnakes. The western diamondback was relocated into a huge rocky den in the nearby habitat.

They were kind enough to get some chairs and sit up front and watch it while I drove there.

7:00 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Repeat customer had seen a very small western diamondback in her front yard. She had hoped it would leave but called us after 45 minutes. In the 8 minutes it took me to get there she lost sight of it. Took a little bit but I found it near where she had last seen it curled up. The home is open to the surrounding desert and she has had multiple interactions in the past.
2025-10-06
3:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner was cleaning up his front yard when he noticed the neonate rattlesnake on his front walkway. The little baby rattlesnake had a big bolus. It couldn’t coil up so it was just laying out straight next to a shrub in the shade. This Home’s yard was very well kept not a lot of heavy vegetation. There was some desert around throughout the homes, but nothing really large. The only close desert was blocked off getting ready to be built up. I took it a little bit further but a lot better desert.

3:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner lives on a beautiful property with a chain-link fence all around and a natural desert area behind the house. He has an abundance of garter snakes, coyotes, javelina, and other desert friends, but this is only his second rattlesnake since 1998. Unfortunately, the snake was in some bushes and spiky tree foliage when I first attempted to obtain it. It quickly jumped up and successfully put itself into a large packrat nest. I found plenty of spiders and a fat packrat before we found our snake friend. It felt ironic to be pulling apart a packrat nest instead of putting a snake safely into one. A western diamondback was found, safely placed in a bucket, and relocated to natural desert away from the community.

2:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake The homeowner called after seeing two rattlesnakes in his yard. By the time I arrived neither of the snakes were where the homeowner saw them. I found 1 by the back left corner of the property and another underneath a bush tucked next to a rock wall where the snake had lodged itself in. The first snake was an easy grab but the second required some hose work. Relocated together into a nearby rodent The homeowner called after seeing two rattlesnakes in his yard.

10:30 PM		 Cave Creek 85331 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Dispatched a call regarding a snake in back yard next to hot tub under tree. When I contacted the customer they stated they believe they may have 2 snakes. Arrived at home and was escorted into the backyard by customer. They kept an eye on the snakes and pointed out where they were. I noticed two atrox situated against a stucco pillar of the patio cover. There was a VERY large male that was situated on the north side of the pillar and a female situated in the west side. Upon closer inspection I noticed the two were locked together mating. I utilized gentle tongs to first capture the male and when they did not unlock I used a hook to help support the female as I got the two into the bucket. Snakes were both fairly mellow given the situation. The male was large. Very large. It was definitely the biggest atrox I’ve captured while working for RS. Inspected the rest of the yard and no other snakes found. Yard is kept neat and landscaping plants are trimmed well enough for the most part. View fence bordered the yard on the south where there is a desert wash. Customers installed 1/2” mesh along the fence. I don’t believe the snakes came from here but rather the side gate on the west side of the home as this it was adjacent to the access point for the wash. Customers indicated interest in fencing. Given the snakes remained locked in mating I decided to keep them in the bucket and wait until morning to release them.

Somewhat tough area to relocate, lots of new development and very little desert left. Did find a nice patch of desert that looks to be free of development for the time being and released snake into a very large Packrat nest that was under a Mesquite tree. Cave Creek.
