Snake Removal

If a snake is on your porch, in the garage, or inside your home, keep your distance and call for professional snake removal. Elite Wildlife Solutions provides fast, humane snake control, safe capture/relocation, and practical snake‑proofing so the problem doesn’t return.

Quick Safety Checklist (Do This Now)

• •Keep children and pets away; close the door to contain the area if possible.
• •Do not try to handle, chase, or kill the snake.
• •Take a clear photo from a safe distance only if it’s easy—otherwise skip it.
• •If anyone is bitten or you suspect a venomous species, call 911 immediately.

Fast ID: Common Georgia Snakes (Venomous vs. Nonvenomous)

Often Venomous in Georgia: Copperhead, Timber Rattlesnake, Cottonmouth (water moccasin in some regions).

Common Nonvenomous Guests: Black Rat Snake, Black Racer, Garter Snake, Kingsnake, Corn Snake, Brown Snake.

Quick cues (not foolproof):

• •Vertical pupils, heat‑sensing facial pits, and a thick triangular head can indicate a pit viper (venomous).
• •Round pupils and a narrow head more often suggest nonvenomous species.

When in doubt, assume venomous and keep distance—we identify on site.

Our Snake Removal & Prevention Plan

1\) Phone Triage & ETA – We assess location, behavior, and safety risks and dispatch a technician.

2\) On‑Site Search & Removal – We locate, safely capture, and relocate the snake in accordance with Georgia regulations.

3\) Entry‑Point Blocking – We install door sweeps, repair gaps at garage/thresholds, screen crawlspace vents, and close voids under steps or decks.

4\) Habitat Correction – We remove attractants (debris piles, tall groundcover), recommend rodent control if needed, and adjust drainage to reduce hiding spots.

5\) Follow‑Up Check – We verify the area is secure and provide a short prevention plan you can maintain easily.

Yard & Home Snake‑Proofing (What Actually Works)

• •Eliminate cover: Clear brush, ivy mats, and stacked lumber; store firewood off ground.
• •Close gaps: Add door sweeps and weatherstripping; seal 1/4‑inch or larger openings; screen dryer and crawlspace vents with 1/4‑inch hardware cloth.
• •Reduce prey: Control rodents and outdoor pet‑food access—fewer mice means fewer snakes.
• •Fix water traps: Repair leaks and improve drainage; remove standing water that draws amphibians and insects.
• •Harden deck skirts: Install buried hardware cloth around decks and sheds to block entry.

Myths vs. Facts

• •Myth: Mothballs or “snake repellent” will keep snakes away.

Fact: Repellents don’t solve the cause. Closing gaps, removing cover, and reducing prey are what prevent re‑visits.

• •Myth: All triangle‑shaped heads mean venomous.

Fact: Many harmless snakes flatten their heads when stressed. Identification requires more features—leave it to a pro.

• •Myth: Killing a snake is the best solution.

Fact: It’s risky, often illegal, and unnecessary. Humane capture and prevention protect people, pets, and local ecology.

When to Call Animal Control or 911

• •A bite has occurred or a snake is actively threatening people or pets.
• •A confirmed venomous snake is loose in an occupied living area.

For all other situations—yard, porch, garage, crawlspace—our team handles removal and prevention.

Will the snake come back?

Relocation plus sealing and habitat changes make repeat visits unlikely; without prevention, snakes return to the same cover and prey.
