We are thinking of the family of little Knox the French Bulldog Puppy who didn’t survive a bite from a Tiger Snake.

Thank you to the family who called us and still had the presence of mind to not harm the snake.

We really appreciate you and commend you for your compassion for wildlife.

Please donate to the below link if you are financially able to help with unexpected vet fees for the family :

We have a beautiful frenchie knox who has a 1 year old male. Knox is a c… Jasmine Lawrence needs your support for Knox’s recovery from a tiger snake bite

Enjoy your Melbourne cup today !

We will be catching snakes today if you need us.

Yesterday was a busy day catching and relocating snakes.

Tigers , Eastern Browns and Copperheads.

I love catching the snakes down here, mostly tigers and copperheads which are like handling a puppy dog compared to the Tai’s up FNQ , so it’s really nice to be catching different species.

Even though these snakes aren’t quite as complex as tai’s to handle, you still have to stay sharp and on your game or else you could end up in 🏥 or ☠️.

Loving doing what I do , educating people as well as removing snakes and hopefully spreading a message about conservation to everyone.

*never try to attempt to handle, or injure a snake that you see. Not only is it ILLEGAL but it is very dangerous and you could end up with a FATAL bite*

Absolute legends 🐍 🇦🇺

Gday all!

Hope you’re well.

Im back from up FNQ working with these amazing animals 🐊!

Next week is going to warm up, so our snakes might be a bit more active.

If you see a snake on your property please ring us or another snake catcher immediately.

We get asked a lot -

when do you need a snake removed here are SOME helpful tips :

Workplace ✅

If there is children and or pets ✅

trapped in your backyard and you feel unsafe ✅

Peace of mind and property assessment ✅

Urban, well populated area ✅

Area of high traffic ✅

If you live on a property , and have no pets or children and are able to continue your day safely without having the snake removed, that’s always the best outcome for both parties.

(sounds strange as this is my business and money in this day and age is needed!)

If you do find your self in need of advice or need a reptile removed.

Call us - 0488 266 189

Or save the number just in case!

A win for wildlife today!

Thank you K Rock - 95.5fm for giving us a media platform to talk sensibly about snakes, and not fear mongering.

We are Constantly fighting to protect snakes and educate the public about them and how vital they are to have around, snakes are a sign of a healthy eco system.

With all the negativity around them in regards to media, I’d just like to say thank you to K Rock for allowing us to have a bit more of a positive look at these amazing animals.

So if you have time , tune in to K Rock or send them a thank you for allowing us to have that space and time to talk positively about snakes.

A small win for wildlife and ecosystems in our region, but I’ll take it !

** please don’t try to handle , injure or harass these animals , untrained interference with most wildlife in Australia can be potentially dangerous and is illegal **
