The data are in! In 2025, we rescued and relocated 91 rattlesnakes and 8 harmless snakes (the latter trapped in netting, sticky traps, or other deadly situations). All for free. Hundreds of hours, thousands of miles, and endless caring and generosity were devoted by our team. 1/2

Training day!

Evening trespasser in Santa Ynez! These guys are looking for places to spend the winter, and it's much better that it be out yonder instead of inside your garage.

Snake season is slowing down, but this rattlesnake didn't get the message yet. Relocated yesterday in San Miguel.

Training day at Mccormick Biological! They were my very first snake safety training clients, and I return a couple of times each year.

Two more rattlesnakes rescued from Santa Barbara neighborhoods yesterday!

Tis the season where rattlesnakes move into crawl spaces, sheds, and garages. We relocated this one recently in Templeton.

We relocated this baby rattlesnake from a winery in San Miguel today.

We relocated this little rattlesnake from a yard in Lompoc yesterday. Thank goodness they called us, they thought it was perhaps a racer or other harmless snake!

If you want to make a huge impact, you can sign up to make recurring monthly donations at CentralCoastSnakeServices.com/donate. Thanks for your support!

Our snake relocation services are FREE, but we pay our technicians for their time and gas. The average donation from a client who just got a rattlesnake removed professionally, swiftly, and humanely is $0. 😌 Our sales help support what we do.

It's October! We have cool merch available to help us fundraise- check it out at centralcoastsnakeservices.com/shop

The newest @CalPoly police officers are now trained to safely handle rattlesnakes that trespass on campus! (They also met Bertha the gopher snake to help them learn how to tell them apart from rattlesnakes.)

Generally not a good situation for either party. We relocated this snake into the abundant wild areas surrounding this home near Lopez Lake in Arroyo Grande.

Blending into the shadows! We relocated this rattlesnake today from a home in the Los Osos Valley in San Luis Obispo. A big thanks to the resident, Patty, for making a generous donation to us because "you responded quickly and saved the rattlesnake!"

Biiiiig rattlesnake relocated from a winery tasting room today. He wasn't invited for a tasting but he got some water from the hose before leaving.

A couple of rattlesnakes relocated in Santa Barbara over the past week. It has been a snakey year so far and it's not slowing down yet! Call 805-401-0811 for free relocation of rattlesnakes from residential properties in SLO and SB Counties.

@TeaDrivenDev Northern technically, depending on which taxonomy you subscribe to.

@CoastSnake Southern Pacific?

Snake singing Cher in karaoke? Alas, no. This is a snake mimicking a yard light. OK, so it's actually just a scared rattlesnake in a yard near Lake Nacimiento, who has now been relocated to a safer place.
