Ok day or two early but spring is here and we all know what that means snake season is upon us 🐍 So now is a great time to get our yards / properties cleaned up and cleared to reduce any place's for my mates to take up residence. Cut and trim down and maintain any long grass, Remove any wood piles from next to the house or rubbish like old stacks of tin old car bodies or anything that you think will attract rodents or make a nice place for a snake to hide in or under. Try your best to take out there food source's by eradicating or reducing rodent infestations as this can get the attention of snakes especially tiger snakes and have them come to the property to help sn**ch a few rats or mice. Not so much an issue yet but as we head in to summer water becomes harder to find. snakes will move around to to find a drink and are more than happy to drink from our pets water bowls. So if possible bring water bowls inside and if you can't try and put ice cream containers with water in them and some stones in it to stop blowing away and if any other critters come for a drink can get back out to. Place around your property boundary and keep filling up every now and then 👌 These tips do not guarantee that you won't see a snake on your property but if you do the snake has no reason to stop and make your place home it should just pass on through 😃👌
If you do find one hanging around or to close to home please do not try and catch it or kill it as this is the best way to get bitten. Call myself on 0432240834 or a local catcher in your area to have it safely removed and relocated 🐍😃👍

Well thank you Justin Kneebone I literally just finished reading your post about your call out today then Tas Water 💧 called me to East Barrack Street Deloraine. They where changing out a water meter when they disturbed this little copperhead. Poor little fella was stiff as a board 🥶. He will stay with me and get a drink and a warm till this rotten weather passes 😍🐍

Once again the Serpentarium Wildlife Park Tasmania in St Helen's put on another great show. I highly recommend to go see the amazing snakes they have on display. This was our third trip to this establishment and the family is always made feel welcome 😍 So if your down in St Helen's love snakes or have a bit of a fear I highly recommend coming to see them and if you like have a hold of the snakes or not ( No one is ever made or pressured to touch or hold )and see they are not blood thirst critters that they are made out to be 😍🐍😎👌 We even timed it right to see the large green anaconda get a feed of chicken 😀😎🐍

So some of us are still seeing snakes out and about and your thinking shouldn't they be hibernating by now 🤔 Well no our snakes don't hibernate they go in to brumation yes they will have a little snooze but remain active moving around in there hiding spot. Animals that hibernate go in to a deep sleep and wont move till its time to wake up 3-4 months later. On our warm winter's days they can be found out getting a warm in the sun or off for a quick drink. There range and movement is less than in the middle of summer and won't go far and yes it is true that our snakes have been observed sitting on a foot of snow getting a warm in the sun. Generally they will not eat as its not warm enough to digest there food item in doing so will lead to the food item rotting in there guts and making the snake sick or even kill them. So if out and about still keep an eye out for them they will be slow and sluggish and might take a minute to get out of your way 🐍😍👌

Kids and i made a very crude what to do if you come across a snake in the backyard or in the bush and you find yourself a bit to close. Maybe play a game with the kids like this and this make it fun but drum the importance of not moving if you find yourself to close also applies to adults 🤣🤣

Got a call out to Hagley this afternoon to a awsome couple that had there farm cat bringing them a little present in to there house a baby copperhead 🐍 The property owner was brave enough to place a couple of containers over it to keep it in place till I got there. Sadly I don't think this one will make it 😢 And for those that are wondering Kitty is fine 🐱
