Snakes in South East Queensland (SEQ)

South East Queensland is home to a diverse range of snake species, some of which are venomous and can pose a threat to humans and pets. The region’s warm climate and abundant natural habitats make it an ideal environment for snakes to thrive. Common species found in SEQ include the Eastern Brown Snake, Red-bellied Black Snake, Carpet Python, and Coastal Taipan. While many snakes are non-venomous and generally shy away from human interaction, it is important to exercise caution and seek professional help when encountering them.

Understanding Snake Behaviour

Snakes play a crucial role in maintaining the ecological balance by controlling rodent and pest populations. Most snake encounters occur when these reptiles are seeking food, water, or shelter. They are often found in gardens, under debris, in sheds, or even inside homes. While snakes are generally not aggressive and prefer to avoid confrontation, they may become defensive if threatened or cornered. This is why it is essential to call a professional snake catcher rather than attempting to handle the situation yourself.

The Importance of Professional Snake Catchers

Professional snake catchers like those at Snake Catcher Armstrong Creek are trained to handle snakes safely and humanely. Our team uses specialized equipment and techniques to capture and relocate snakes without causing harm to them or to humans. We are knowledgeable about the behavior and habitats of different snake species, enabling us to identify and handle them appropriately. By choosing a professional service, you are not only protecting yourself and your family but also contributing to the conservation of these important creatures.

Safe Relocation for Coexistence

One of the primary goals of Snake Catcher Armstrong Creek is to promote coexistence between humans and wildlife. Snakes are an integral part of our ecosystem, and it is important to treat them with respect and care. When we relocate a snake, we ensure it is moved to a suitable habitat away from populated areas, where it can continue to thrive without posing a risk to people. This humane approach helps to preserve snake populations and maintain the natural balance of our environment.

Education and Awareness

At Snake Catcher  Armstrong Creek, we believe that education and awareness are key to reducing fear and promoting coexistence with snakes. We offer as much free advice and resources as possible to help the community better understand these amazing reptiles.
