Snake awareness
Learning and teaching ‘snake awareness’ to you and your family is an important part of protecting you and them from snakes. This awareness of snakes and snake bites has a three pronged approach:
Be aware of the dangers posed by snakes and take steps to avoid them
As far as you are able, ‘proof’ your home and garden against snakes
Know the symptoms of a snake bite and the appropriate treatment
The most common snakes species that you may encounter in the U.S, include:
- Garter Snakes
- Rattle Snakes
- Copperhead Snakes
- Coral Snakes
- Cotton Mouth Snakes
For your own safety and that of the snake, you should never touch them and whenever possible, please try not to be alarmed.
Signs of snakes
It is rare to see snakes in the U.S. If you do spot one, it will usually be between July and September when they are at their most active.
Typically gardens with extensive secluded wildlife areas will have snakes. In most garden areas if snakes are seen, they are most likely just passing through.
There are a few hard to spot signs of snakes that you can look out for if you have concerns. These include:
Shed skins – Some snakes tend to shed their skins soon after emerging from hibernation
Winding trails on light dirt or sandy surfaces

Snake Control Services Kenya | Where you might find snakes
There are certain places where snakes may like to hide on your property. Reptile Habitats – Nature reserves of rough grassland, disused quarries, large allotments, large derelict urban sites or sunny road and railway embankments with scrub cover. Garden Features – Wood, rock or rubble piles, rockeries, ponds, long grass areas and shrubs. Sunny Areas – Suntrap areas with lots of vegetation cover and places to shelter.
Gardens, parks or other grassed areas – Be prepared to find reptiles if you lift up debris or are near features such as hedges, ponds, compost heaps and areas of long grass. Reptiles are timid and will usually flee to seek cover if they are detected by people or pets.
- Deter snakes from entering your property
To deter snakes there are a few things you can do: - Mow grass regularly to keep it short.
- Clear low growing plants and shrubs that provide cover.
- Remove rockeries, debris, wood or log piles. Keep compost heaps in a sealed bin.
- Fill holes that they can hide in – under sheds, patios and walls.
- Putting close fitting fences or walls around ponds can be a deterrent.
- If the snake you’ve seen is an escaped pet, it should be removed by professionals.
Sometimes exotic snakes are found in gardens, grounds or warehouses – mostly in urban or suburban areas. These species may be escaped or abandoned pets or accidentally imported in goods.
