On a sunny Sunday morning, Snakes in the City received a call about a tree snake in the front yard of a property on Dorset Street, Northbridge. An experienced catcher from our network was soon on site, located the snake and removed it. The next step was humane relocation.
This call-out is one example of our snake removal service in Northbridge, on Sydney’s Lower North Shore.
A Sunday morning call-out on Dorset Street
After Snakes in the City was called, our team arranged for an experienced network catcher to attend. The tree snake was found in the front yard and removed from the property.
The two photographs below show the attending catcher with the tree snake during the Dorset Street call-out.
Removal completed, humane relocation planned
The snake was removed from the Northbridge property and will be humanely relocated.
Our office arranges attendance through the Snakes in the City catcher network. When you call, we confirm the location, the situation and catcher availability. The prompt attendance on this occasion is specific to this call-out; arrival times depend on availability and location.
What to do if you find a snake in your front yard
Keep people and pets away and do not approach, handle or try to trap the snake. If you can safely observe it from a distance, note its last-known position and tell the catcher where it was seen.
Our snake-in-the-yard service guide explains how we can help. You can also read our snake safety advice and common tree snake guide. Do not rely on colour alone to identify a snake or move closer to take a photograph.
