What should I do if I see a snake until the catcher arrives?

Will the snake be harmed during removal?
No. All snakes are safely contained, humanely handled, and relocated within 5km of capture in accordance with Queensland wildlife regulations. We treat all snakes with respect and care for their wellbeing.
Will a relocated snake come back to my house?
Relocation within 5km significantly reduces the chance of return. However, snake prevention is your best defense. Remove food sources (rodents, frogs), seal gaps and cracks, keep grass short, and clear debris. This makes your property less attractive to snakes.
How can I prevent snakes from entering my home?
Key prevention steps:
• Keep lawns mowed short and remove ground cover
• Clear wood piles, leaf litter, and debris
• Seal gaps under sheds, decks, and doors
• Fix roof gaps and install mesh on vents
• Reduce rodent populations (no pet food outside overnight)
• Remove standing water and cover pools
