Snake Control: Trapping & Removal Service

New Hampshire only has very few venomous snakes (one is the timber rattlesnake). The other nonvenomous snakes are still not a creature you want on your property, but we do not recommend DIY snake trapping or snake removal. Many snakes are protected by law, and our technicians know which snakes are legally protected and how to safely proceed with snake trapping and relocation.

Snakes do not have internal temperature regulation, so they depend on external sources like the sun, so you may see them in warm places like rocks, woodpiles, or in garages or basements to keep cool. If you see a snake on your property, call Critter Control of New Hampshire at (603) 836-4768 and we will create a snake prevention and removal plan. You can also leave us more information here.
