Snake Problems in Middle Tennessee

29 varieties of non-venomous snakes and 5 species of venomous snakes occur in Middle Tennessee. The vast majority of snakes we find in this area are non-venomous species such as garter snakes, rat snakes, black racers, and water snakes. Most snakes in Middle Tennessee are fully active from late March through early November, but may also be active on warm, mild winter days.

Snakes may be active at night or during the day as temperatures allow. Most snakes are excellent climbers and often will enter homes to seek out a food source such as mice, chipmunks, rats, birds, and squirrels. 

When threatened, almost every snake will coil and strike out at a perceived threat, and some will also vibrate their tail to mimic a rattlesnake. Any snake can be aggressive, and should all be treated with respect. If you are unsure, treat it as a venomous snake and keep your distance.

What our customers say about us

We frequently handle raccoons, squirrels, skunks, groundhogs, rodents, bats, armadillos, moles, chipmunks, and opossums in Murfreesboro, Nashville, and the surrounding areas of Middle Tennessee. Understanding wildlife behavior helps us manage these animals effectively while complying with local regulations. It’s crucial to identify entry points and provide prevention tips, like securing trash cans and sealing gaps in buildings. These measures can deter wildlife from entering your property, ensuring a harmonious coexistence with nature while protecting your home or landscaping from potential damage.

Whenever possible, we use eviction/exclusion only methods with no trapping and relocation. This is the most humane option. In cases where relocation is necessary, we prioritize humane practices to ensure animal welfare. Our team follows strict relocation protocols, which include assessing the animal’s health, reproductive condition, and stress levels to determine whether the animal should be taken to a wildlife rescue center or can be immediately relocated and released at a distant Wildlife Management Area.

For example, we always check to see if a captured animal is a nursing female. If so, we keep her or deliver her to a wildlife rescue/rehabilitation center for safekeeping until we have reunited her with all of her latest litter or offspring, in order to ensure the family is reunited and released together when they are ready.

Before setting traps at your property, we select a specific release site for potential captured animals that meets the following criteria: plentiful and easily accessible food, shelter, and water sources, and limited competition from existing resident animal populations of the same species. Studies have shown that these criteria result in very high (>90%) survival rates of relocated animals.

We use safe, specialized equipment to capture and transport animals, minimizing any distress. Once relocated, we release them into suitable, natural habitats where they can thrive.  By adhering to these protocols, we maintain a compassionate approach, ensuring that the animals’ well-being is our top priority throughout the process.

Yes, we’re available 24/7 to handle emergency animal removal. Our team ensures swift emergency response while prioritizing wildlife safety. We use advanced rescue techniques to manage situations effectively and humanely. Our trained professionals are equipped to tackle any wildlife-related emergencies, ensuring both the safety of the animals and the security of your property. We’re dedicated to providing reliable and compassionate service anytime you need us, around the clock.

We guarantee to remove and relocate any animal caught in a live trap within 12 hours of capture/notification. Typically it is much less than 12 hours- we average about 5 to 6 hours from capture to release, which is a time that no other company in the area is able to match. We focus on minimizing animal stress throughout the process. Our team uses humane practices to ensure quick and safe transitions. We assess each situation individually, tailoring our approach to meet the needs of the wildlife involved while ensuring their well-being and compliance with local regulations.

We guarantee service satisfaction by ensuring removal effectiveness for all wildlife issues. We trust our expertise and always encourage customer feedback to improve our techniques. If a problem persists, we’ll revisit and resolve it without additional charge, standing by our commitment to your peace of mind. Our comprehensive warranties on exclusion repairs reflect our confidence in our solutions, ensuring that you can rely on our professional team for thorough and lasting wildlife management. The length of warranty depends on the specific animal issue and the repairs performed. Most of our repairs to animal entry points have a 15 year or life-of-structure guarantee against animal intrusion, which we honor with free tapping, animal removal, and repair reinforcement if any animal gains access to your home or other structure at the repair location.
