Our Snake Removal Process

At Jesse James Critter Gitters, we take a thorough, step-by-step approach to snake removal and control. Here’s how our process works:

  1. Inspection and Assessment:
    The first step is to assess the situation. Our team will conduct a thorough inspection of your property to locate any snakes and determine how they’re accessing your home. Whether the snake is inside your house, in your yard, or in hidden spaces like basements or crawlspaces, we’ll find it. We’ll also identify any entry points that might be attracting snakes.
  2. Safe and Professional Snake Removal:
    Once we’ve located the snake, we’ll carefully remove it using the proper tools and techniques. Our team is trained in safe, humane snake handling, ensuring that the snake is removed without harm and relocated far from your property.
  3. Snake Exclusion Services:
    After the snake is removed, we’ll inspect your home for potential entry points and places where snakes could be hiding, such as cracks in walls, gaps around doors and windows, or spaces around the foundation. Our team will seal up any openings to prevent future snake invasions.
  4. Prevention Tips and Ongoing Monitoring:
    To help keep snakes away from your home, we’ll provide you with valuable tips on making your property less attractive to snakes. This includes clearing brush, securing food sources, and maintaining your yard. If necessary, we can schedule follow-up visits to monitor your property and ensure that no new snakes have entered.

Signs You May Need Snake Removal

Snakes are often secretive and will usually avoid humans, but there are signs to look for that could indicate you have a snake problem:

  • Snake Sightings: If you’ve seen a snake in your yard, garden, or inside your home, it’s time to call a professional.
  • Shed Snake Skins: Snakes shed their skin as they grow. Finding shed skin around your property could mean a snake is living nearby.
  • Unusual Noises: Scratching or slithering sounds in your attic, walls, or basement can indicate a snake is nearby.
  • Droppings: Snake droppings are usually elongated and can contain undigested food. If you see these near your home, there may be a snake nearby.

If you’ve noticed any of these signs, don’t wait to act—contact Jesse James Critter Gitters for a professional snake removal service.

Common Snake Species We Handle

We handle a wide range of snake species in Central and Northern Virginia. Some common snakes that we remove include:

  • Eastern Rat Snake: Harmless but can be large and intimidating.
  • Black Racer Snake: Often aggressive but non-venomous.
  • Copperhead Snake: Venomous and dangerous to humans and pets.
  • Timber Rattlesnake: A venomous rattlesnake species found in wooded areas.
  • Garter Snakes: Usually harmless, but they can still be a nuisance.

If you encounter any snake species, whether venomous or not, it’s essential to have it removed by a professional to avoid unnecessary risks.

Why Snakes Are Attracted to Your Property

Snakes are attracted to areas where they can find food, shelter, and water. Here are some common factors that might draw snakes to your home:

  • Rodents: Snakes often enter homes in search of food, and if you have a rodent problem, it may attract snakes.
  • Tall Grass and Shrubs: Overgrown landscaping provides shelter for snakes and easy access to your property.
  • Water Sources: Ponds, streams, or leaking pipes can draw snakes, especially in hot weather.
  • Cluttered Areas: Wood piles, sheds, and debris can provide hiding spots for snakes.

By addressing these factors, you can make your home less appealing to snakes.
