Finding a snake by your back door, in the garage, or, worst of all, inside the
house is unsettling, and it's hard to know in the moment whether it's dangerous.
Don't try to handle it yourself. Marietta Wildlife Removal connects you with a licensed local pro who safely removes snakes from
Marietta homes and yards, venomous or not, and helps keep them from coming back.
Call (678) 257-7116. We answer 24/7.
Most Marietta snakes are harmless, but don't guess
The large majority of snakes around Marietta are non-venomous and actually help
keep rodents down. But Georgia does have venomous species, and telling them apart
in a stressful moment isn't something to gamble on. Our pros identify and remove the
snake safely so you don't have to get close enough to find out.
When you'll see them
Snakes are most active in Marietta during the warm months, spring through
early fall, when they're out hunting and looking for shelter. They tend to show
up where their food and cover are: near woodpiles, tall grass, foundation gaps,
crawlspaces, and garages. A snake indoors is often following rodents, which is
worth knowing: sometimes a snake problem is really a mouse problem underneath.
How it's handled
- Locate & identify: our pros find the snake and determine the species
- Remove: safe capture and removal from the home or property
- Assess entry & attractants: our pros look at how it got in and what drew it
(often rodents or accessible cover) - Advise & seal: recommendations and sealing to reduce the chance of a repeat

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the snakes around Marietta venomous?
Most snakes in the Marietta area are harmless, but Georgia does have venomous species like the copperhead, so you should never try to identify or handle one yourself. Keep your distance and call (678) 257-7116, and we'll get a pro out to safely identify and remove it.
What should I do if I find a snake in my house?
Keep people and pets away, keep the snake in sight from a safe distance if you can, and close off the room if possible. Do not try to catch or kill it, that is when most bites happen. Call us and we'll get a pro out to remove it safely.
When are snakes most active in Georgia?
Snakes are most active in the warm months, from spring through fall, when they are hunting and looking for shelter. You are most likely to encounter them in yards, garages, crawl spaces, and around woodpiles or foundations during this time.
How do you keep snakes from coming back?
After removal our pros identify how and why snakes are getting onto your property, seal entry points into the home, and advise on yard changes that make it less attractive to them. Call (678) 257-7116 for safe snake removal and prevention.
