Identifying Snake Activity

Signs of a snake infestation.

Snakes can find their way into your home through small gaps and crevices, often seeking shelter in crawl spaces or basements. Recognizing the signs of their presence is essential for maintaining a secure and comfortable living environment.

ENTRY POINTS

Access Points

Snakes can enter through tiny cracks in foundations, gaps around utility lines, or damaged vents. They often seek out cool, dark areas like crawl spaces or basements.

EVIDENCE

Shed Skins

Finding a shed snake skin is a definitive sign of activity. These are often left behind in secluded areas, attics, or near foundation walls as the snake grows.

BEHAVIOR

Basking Spots

Snakes are cold-blooded and frequently bask in sunny areas. Look for them on warm rocks, porch steps, or near south-facing walls during the morning or late afternoon.

STRUCTURE

Crawl Space Activity

Dark, undisturbed crawl spaces provide ideal shelter. If you notice unusual movement or hear faint rustling in these areas, it may indicate a snake has taken up residence.

SEASONAL

Seasonal Patterns

Snake activity often peaks during spring and fall as they move to find mates or prepare for winter hibernation. Increased sightings during these times are common.

PREVENTION

Professional Inspection

If you suspect a snake is living on your property, we provide expert inspections to identify entry points and implement effective exclusion methods.

Common Questions

Expert Answers.

Answers to the most common wildlife control questions. Need specific help? Contact us today.

How can I tell if a snake is venomous?

While many snakes in Indiana are harmless, it is best to treat any snake you cannot positively identify as potentially dangerous. Our experts can help you identify the species and determine if it poses a threat to your family or pets.

Why are snakes getting into my home?

Snakes typically enter homes in search of food (like rodents), water, or shelter. If you have a rodent problem, you are significantly more likely to attract snakes. We can help identify and seal the entry points they are using.

How can I prevent snakes on my property?

The best prevention is to remove their food sources and hiding spots. Keep your grass mowed, remove brush piles, seal gaps in your foundation, and address any rodent infestations immediately.

Is it safe to remove a snake myself?

We strongly advise against handling snakes yourself. Even non-venomous snakes can bite, and misidentifying a venomous species can lead to serious injury. Our professionals have the proper tools and training to remove them safely.

Where do snakes usually hide?

Snakes prefer cool, dark, and damp areas. Common hiding spots include crawl spaces, basements, wood piles, tall grass, under sheds, and inside cluttered garages or storage areas.
