A snake beside a path, in a garden or at a workplace is a reason to clear the immediate area, not to search for it. Snakes in the City can arrange licensed removal in Lalor Park; tell us the exact last-seen place and safe way in.

Lalor Park is a built-up suburb with public recreation spaces woven through residential streets. A park report and a snake under household storage require different access instructions. These are response examples, not records of Snakes in the City call-outs.
Blacktown City lists Chifley Reserve with the library, community centre and skate area. At a shared path or activity area, move others away and give the nearest street entrance or landmark. Do not follow the animal through planting.
Council places Ashley Brown Reserve and Cavanagh Reserve in Lalor Park. If a snake is seen near a field, court or playground, identify the particular facility and keep spectators and pets back. Never enter longer grass to verify it has gone.
Describe the safest gate, garage or side access, and whether the snake is visible or concealed. Sheds, garden materials and fence lines can obstruct sight on any street; their presence does not prove a den or a species.
Healthdirect advises keeping the person still and applying a pressure-immobilisation bandage and splint where appropriate while waiting for an ambulance. Do not wash, cut or suck the bite, apply a tourniquet or try to catch the snake. Even few early symptoms require urgent assessment.
For a person who may have been bitten, call 000 first and follow the ambulance operator’s transport instructions. Blacktown Hospital, 18 Blacktown Road, Blacktown NSW 2148, is open 24 hours; its switchboard is (02) 9881 8000, not a substitute for 000.
If a pet may have been bitten, keep it still and phone a veterinarian urgently. SASH Western Sydney lists a 24/7 emergency service at 1 Rowood Road, Prospect NSW 2148, phone (02) 8609 9444. Call ahead for current capacity and transport advice; this page does not promise treatment for every case.
Our back office coordinates available catchers by location and proximity. Explain whether the snake is in a public space, building or yard and whether it remains visible. A call-out fee applies, with no weekend or public-holiday loading; ask what the visit and any search for a disappeared snake cover before booking. Capture cannot be guaranteed when an animal is hidden or has moved on. Snakes in the City provides humane capture and relocation under NSW licence MWL000102655.

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.
