Snake removal in Swarthmore
Snake Removal in Swarthmore, PA
Snakes in the basement, the garage or the garden.
What you are dealing with
What you can see is usually part of it.
Garter snakes and other harmless species live along the Crum Woods and in old stone walls and gardens. Now and then one finds a gap in a stone foundation and ends up in a basement, usually following mice.
We catch the snake, take it away from the house and show you the gaps that let it in.
Any of these help us work out what is in there.
- A snake in the basement, the garage or a window well
- Shed skins by the foundation or a stone wall
- The same snake seen in the garden more than once
- Mice in the basement
