Why Your Property Our Columbia Snake Treatment Service
In addition to being generally unpleasant and alarming, snakes can pose
a real danger to your household. Some of these animals are poisonous,
with bites that contain potentially deadly venom. You should never attempt
to kill a snake, as many of these animals are harmless, and even do important
work controlling the rodent population (some people even like to keep
snakes as pets.) But it is important to take action if you see an unexpected
snake inside or outside of your property.
If you see a snake around your home, you should:
- Remain calm, not making any sudden movements that could scare the snake
into hiding somewhere you can’t find it.
- Attempt to identify the species; determining whether the snake is poisonous
or not will help you make the important decision of whether to vacate
your property.
- If the snake is inside, try opening a nearby door to coax it out. If you
are not able to do this, you may want to create a barrier to trap the
snake in the room, so it can’t slither away. Unless you are ABSOLUTELY
SURE the snake is not poisonous (like a common garter snake, for instance,)
do not approach it or attempt to get rid of it on your own.
- Call an experienced pest control professional to remove the snake for you.
At Modern Exterminating, our “Snake-A-Way” service is designed
to ensure snakes never come onto your property to begin with. In addition
to safe spraying methods that will keep snakes away for up to 120 days,
we also offer exclusion services that help seal up cracks and holes that
could be an entryway for snakes to come into your home. It is important
to inspect your house or business’s foundation and look for unsealed
wiring or open pipes that might encourage snakes to enter your property.
You should also consider calling for lawn care, as overhanging tree branches
are a common means for snakes to get onto your roof or into your chimney.
By sealing off these entry points, you can not only keep snakes but pests like
rodents and other animals away, too. Remember, killing snakes is considered an
act of animal cruelty, which is why our team focuses on removing snakes
and keeping them away, rather than using traditional extermination methods.
