Snake Control & Snake Removal In North Georgia
Snakes are not pests, and Snake Removal and Snake Control cannot be handled through traditional pest control treatments. When snakes begin appearing in yards, crawl spaces, garages, or near homes in North Georgia, the issue is typically tied to habitat conditions, food sources, and shelter — not something sprays or deterrents alone can resolve. Venomous and non-venomous snakes are protected wildlife in Georgia, and removal must follow specific regulations and humane handling requirements.
Snake Removal And Snake Control Services For North Georgia are professionally handled by our Wildlife Division, Southern Wildlife Management, providing homeowners with direct access to licensed wildlife technicians when snake activity becomes a safety or quality-of-life concern.

Why Snake Problems Are Not A Pest Control Issue
Snakes are reptiles, not insects or rodents. They are not affected by standard pest control products, perimeter treatments, or general repellents. Snake activity is usually a sign of underlying conditions such as rodent presence, dense ground cover, water sources, or structural hiding areas.
Because snakes are regulated wildlife in Georgia, removal and control require proper licensing, experience with species identification, and humane handling practices. For this reason, snake issues fall under licensed nuisance wildlife control — not routine pest control services.

MOST COMMON QUESTIONS ASKED ABOUT SNAKE REMOVAL & SNAKE CONTROL:
How do I know if I have a snake problem on my property?
Common signs include repeated snake sightings, shed skins, movement in tall grass or debris, and the presence of rodents or frogs that attract snakes.
Are snakes dangerous to have around my home?
Not all snakes are venomous, but any snake encounter carries risk. Because identification can be difficult, all snakes should be treated as potentially dangerous and left to professionals.
What attracts snakes to residential properties?
Snakes are drawn to food sources such as rodents, frogs, and insects, along with shelter like woodpiles, debris, tall grass, rock borders, and poorly maintained landscaping.
Do snake repellents actually work?
Most store-bought repellents are ineffective. Professional-grade repellents combined with habitat modification offer better results when used correctly.
Is snake removal handled through pest control?
No. Snakes are protected wildlife in Georgia and must be handled by licensed wildlife professionals, not standard pest control services.
Can you remove venomous snakes like copperheads?
Yes. Licensed wildlife professionals are trained to safely locate, capture, and remove venomous snakes when permitted by law.
Will removing one snake solve the problem?
Not always. Snake removal addresses the immediate issue, but long-term control requires habitat modification and reducing prey activity.
How long does a snake inspection or removal take?
Most inspections and removal efforts are performed within a set time window. Wildlife activity is unpredictable, so success depends on conditions at the time of service.
Do snakes return after removal?
They can if the conditions that attracted them remain. Habitat modification is critical for long-term snake control.
Who should handle snake removal in North Georgia?
Only properly licensed wildlife control professionals with experience in snake behavior, handling, and habitat modification should perform snake removal and control.
