In the sunny and warm climate of Florida, snakes often look to residential homes for food, water, and shelter. Therefore, it’s not unlikely to find these scaly reptiles slithering around in your backyard in search of sunlight for their cold-blooded bodies. While snakes can assist residences by keeping other pests—like rats and mice—away, their presence can strike fear at first glance, and for a good reason.
Though most Florida snakes are non-venomous, many do have a tendency to bite those who startle, threaten, or accidentally disturb them. If you happen upon a snake on your Clermont property, keep a safe distance and rely on the wildlife experts at Critter Control® of Lake County for proper Clermont snake removal.
Once you identify a snake near or in your home, there are several steps you can take to make sure the infestation doesn’t grow worse. Here are a few steps you can take to control snakes before you get help from professionals.
The above tips may work to deter snakes away from your property, but if you have snakes within your home or nesting in other outdoor structures, their removal will require professional assistance. To avoid the risk of painful strike or venomous bite, keep your distance from the animal and contact the licensed and equipped snake removal professionals at Critter Control® of Lake County to quickly and safely remove nuisance snakes from your Clermont property before they get the opportunity to breed and increase their infestation.
