When it comes to Florida wildlife, snakes are a very common sight in the Sunshine State. The generally mild, warm, and sunny climate of Mount Dora, Florida offers the perfect habitat for a myriad of snake species to survive and thrive. While snakes are fine in forests and preserves, their presence can frighten homeowners and pose problems if found on residential or commercial properties.
Whether the snakes you find around your Mount Dora home or business are poisonous or not, it’s critical to keep a safe distance and deal with them by contacting your local wildlife removal experts at Critter Control of Lake County®.
The Dangers of Snakes on Mount Dora Properties
Our licensed and trained experts are experienced and equipped to properly handle both venomous and non-venomous snake removal in Mount Dora. Venomous snakes can be fatal to children or pets that enjoy playing outside. Of the nearly sixty species of snakes that exist across the state of Florida, there are only a few venomous species: the coral snake, cottonmouth, and two species of rattlesnakes. Each of these potentially deadly snakes can be found around Lake County, Florida yards and gardens.
Venomous or not, if you accidentally disturb a snake, you run the risk of startling it and receiving a painful bite. Common non-venomous, but potentially dangerous, snake species in Florida include rat snakes, water snakes, kingsnakes, southern black racers, and pythons, which are invasive and are known to strangle and swallow large prey whole.
