Licensed Snake Catchers
Trained snake handling for homes, businesses, schools, sheds and local properties.
24/7 Emergency Response
Available day and night for urgent snake sightings across Glenhaven and nearby suburbs.
Safe and Humane Relocation
Snakes are handled safely and relocated using professional equipment and appropriate care.
Glenhaven combines substantial family homes, larger residential blocks, mature gardens and semi-rural character with bushy reserves, drainage corridors and neighbouring Hills District habitat. These features can provide temporary shelter, warmth, water and prey for reptiles moving through the area. A snake sighting does not mean a property is unclean; snakes commonly travel through suitable habitat while searching for food, cover or a route between sheltered areas.
Particular care is sensible around retaining walls, dense groundcover, timber and garden-material stacks, pool equipment, garages, sheds, roof spaces, aviaries, compost areas and places where rodents or frogs may be present. Do not place hands into a concealed area after a snake has disappeared. Note the last known location and leave the search to a trained snake catcher
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SEE A SNAKE
- Move children, visitors and pets away calmly.
- Do not try to catch, kill, trap, spray or hit the snake.
- Watch from a safe distance if safe to do so.
- If the snake is inside, close doors only if you can do so without approaching it.
- Call and describe where you last saw the snake.

If someone is bitten, call 0411 103 488 immediately. Keep the person still and calm. Apply a firm pressure immobilisation bandage over the bite area and along the limb, splint the limb if possible, and do not wash the bite site. Do not attempt to catch the snake for identification.
Snake activity most relevant to Glenhaven
Customers should not rely on colour or size to identify a snake. Many harmless and dangerous species are misidentified during a stressful sighting. Treat every unknown snake as potentially dangerous until a trained handler has assessed it.
- Eastern Brown Snake: Serious venom risk. Often the key concern in warm open areas, paddocks, grassed edges, sheds and places with rodent activity.
- Red-bellied Black Snake: Venomous. More likely near dams, creeks, drainage lines, wet gardens, ponds and frog habitat.
- Diamond Python: Non-venomous python. Can be reported in roof spaces, trees, sheds and bushy or semi-rural properties.
- Golden-crowned Snake: Small nocturnal species sometimes found in gardens or brought into homes by pets.
