Why Snakes Are Found Around Sutherland
Sutherland is a strong target suburb because it is a Sutherland Shire hub with nearby bushland and natural corridors. Local snake sightings are more likely where there is a mix of shelter, warmth, water and prey. Royal National Park access, bushland reserves, the rail corridor, suburban gardens, schools and garages can all bring snakes closer to homes, sheds, pets and work areas, especially during warm weather.
A snake on a Sutherland property does not mean the property is dirty or neglected. In many cases, the snake is simply moving through nearby habitat or following food, water, shelter or warmth.
- Royal National Park access
- Bushland reserves
- Rail corridor
- Suburban gardens
- Schools

- Remove loose timber, sheet metal, tarps and rubbish piles
- Store pet food, bird seed and animal feed in sealed containers
