Snake in your yard?
Don’t grab it. Don’t kill it. Text a photo to the snake line and a volunteer relocator helps. Free.
Every snake we move is one nobody had to kill
We are a Northeast Florida snake crew. Neighbors send us a photo, we tell them what it is, and when a snake needs to go, a volunteer relocator moves it somewhere safe.
Rescue
Snake in the garage, the pool or the house? Text a photo and where you are. We will tell you what it is and help.
