Little River
During excavation work ,
Lifting a rock revealed a small snake , while they thought it stayed in the grass area, it continued travelling and wasn't found,,
close to property boundary was the issue of not finding.

My pet lowlands copperhead is showing his head today could mean a snake or two may come out today like Tuesday was a sighting down Torquay

Telstra pit
Waurn ponds
Workers spotted the copperhead before entering the pit
So a heads up snakes are still around just not active by moving around.
During winter approximately half the calls are snakes in holes or pits

Lowland Copperhead snake got stuck in the drain grate.
The owner took this pic. Ended up being a good healthy snake about 1.3 meters long.
The golden retriever was taken to vet just to be safe . (Dog wasn't bitten as blood test came back negative) 😀

Lara tiger snake
Tiger snake was to close to dogs and Claire now knows a shovel is not a good tool , I'm sure the broom will be used next time
Garden/ bushes were slashed away now a snake won't find a spot to hide near the dogs
So if you got a jungle of bushes near ya house or pet yard cut it back or cut it down to ground level as I did to find a tiger snake.
