Arranging a call-out
Our office checks catcher availability and location before arranging attendance. Ask about the expected arrival time, call-out fee and what the fee covers. Traffic, access and other jobs can affect timing.

For a snake at your property
Give the street number, identify any shared driveway or locked gate, and say whether the snake was last seen in the house, beside a deck or along the garden boundary. If it disappears beneath the house or into stored materials, report that location rather than entering the space or moving items to look for it.
Cowan Station to Jerusalem Bay
The Great North Walk section through Ku-ring-gai Chase starts at Cowan Station and heads towards Jerusalem Bay and Brooklyn. NSW National Parks describes it as a challenging route with a steep descent and climb. A track location may be well beyond vehicle access, even when the trip began at the station.
What should a walker do after seeing a snake near Jerusalem Bay?
Stop well clear and allow it to move away. Do not approach for a picture or try to relocate it. If someone may have been bitten, call 000 and follow the emergency operator’s instructions; a snake-catching booking is not medical help.
What if the snake has gone?
Call with the last sighting and time. Do not dismantle stored materials or enter a roof, drain or underfloor space. Ask the team whether a visit is useful and what charges apply if the animal cannot be located.

Counts apply to the whole square, not each suburb listed. A suburb appearing in a square does not mean a snake was recorded in that suburb. These are public observation records, not SITC call-outs, unique snake totals or a measure of danger.
