Virginia Snake Removal understands that removal of these animals is an emergency, and it cannot wait. However, never try to remove them on your own! There are 3 species of these animals that are very dangerous and venomous, and telling them apart can be tricky if you do not have experience. As both venomous and nonvenomous snakes can be found inside homes as well as outside. If you encounter one of these animals you should immediately distance yourself from them, if possible keep visual contact, and call a removal expert to remove them from your home or business.
If you are unsure if it is venomous please click here to identify venomous snakes. Or familiarize yourself with what the Eastern Copperhead looks like, as this is the only venomous snake that is native to the Dublin area.

Virginia Snake Facts
They are reptiles and belong to the same crew of animals as lizards, turtles, and crocodiles. Reptiles have dry scales that are shed periodically. Unlike mammals and birds, reptiles can’t generate body heat and rely on other sources to increase their body temperature. This trait makes them wait out long periods of significant cold and warm conditions that we can see in the Dublin areas of Virginia.
They vary from other reptiles through having no legs, ears, or eyelids, and by possessing only a single functional lung. The most wonderful characteristic of them is their extraordinarily long, narrow body. Their body lets them easily climb, swim, and slip into the smallest spaces which include the home and basement areas of your house.
Although they lack ears and can’t technically hear, they do have the capacity to discover low-frequency vibrations from the air and ground. Instead of eyelids, snakes have a clear scale protecting each eye. The shedding of this scale caused the eye to cloud over for a few days, which led to the fable that they can go blind during certain instances of the year in Dublin.

Venomous Snakes in Dublin Virginia
Two of the three venomous snakes in Virginia are found here in Dublin and numerous non-venomous snakes. These snakes are the Eastern Copperhead and the Timber Rattlesnake. Call us immediately if you think your home or property has either of these animals. And do not attempt to touch or trap these animals. These reptiles are territorial, will not attack unless provoked, and are likely more scared of you than you are.

There’s a Snake in My Home: What Do I Do?
Snakes in the home or basement are frequent throughout the chillier months when it is warmer, and cooler all through the summer months here in Dublin. Because of this, residences are also an incredible place to discover food sources such as bugs or mice. If you locate one of these animals in your house, it is highly recommended to call a specialist.
Like all rodents, fall and winter are the perfect times when they are seeking warmth, and unfortunately, your home, garage, attic, or basement is the ideal place. When this happens, they are attracted to the rodent’s presence in your home.
That being said, these animals don’t belong in your home. While do-it-yourself strategies are a popular solution, they may not work, or even worse, be hazardous to your health. Due to this, removal methods must be dealt with based on the species present, as well as the needs of your home, pets, and family.
A professional snake removal specialist will be capable to provide the most secure and humane removal of the animals in your home. It is not endorsed for homeowners to get rid of them from their homes. There they will start trapping them in your home if it starts hiding when we get there.
If you can’t get it out, or want professional help we at Virginia and Dublin Snake Removal will supply a free inspection for snake removal in Dublin and its surrounding cities.
How Do I Prevent Them From Coming on My Property?
They are naturally drawn to places where there is a food source, and where they can hide. As such, there are certain things you can do to make your property uninviting to them, such as:
- Remove any piles of debris, like dead wood or rocks
- Cut your grass regularly so they can’t hide in it
- Regularly trim hedges & bushes
- Make sure there are no gaps under doors, windows, decks, or patios
By keeping your property tidy and well maintained, you are less likely to welcome these animals or any other unwanted critters into your yard.
If neither of these is working then, you will need to contact us at Virginia Snake Removal, as you or your neighbors have rodents or pests in your homes attracting them. We offer pest control as well as removal to make sure these animals will never come back.
