Snake removal services
Experienced help for the place you found it
Our back office allocates call-outs using the working roster, catcher availability and known mapped locations. Several catchers give us more options when someone is already on a job. Read how we arrange your response.
Our $350 snake-removal call-out fee stays the same at any time of day or night, on weekends and on public holidays. It pays for travel, the catcher’s time, safe handling and humane relocation.
For preparation before a sighting, ask about toolbox talks and property snake-proofing.
