Snakes

A good number of snake species in the Live Oak, Universal City, Leon Valley, Selma, New Braunfels, Canyon Lake, Schertz, Timberwood Park, Boerne, Cibolo, Stone Oak, Hollywood Park, Shavano Park, Fredericksburg, Spring Branch, Fair Oaks & Alamo Heights area are not venomous, but it's wise to avoid interacting with any snake just in case. San Antonio has four common venomous snakes, including the copperhead, rattlesnake, cottonmouth, and coral snake. Because snakes cannot regulate their own body temperature and rely on the sun to do it for them, they are usually found in warm areas. Many snakes do not like to be out in the open, so they're found curled up under rocks in San Antonio yards and under porches. So whether you're facing a den of snakes on your San Antonio property or just notice one snake, Wildlife X Team® San Antonio can help—call 830.253.2810 today!

Project: Knowledgeable, Friendly & Great Follow-Up

We recently bought a home and have not been able to move in due to a horrible odor inside and under the home. We called Wildlife XTeam and Adam came as scheduled and removed a dead skunk from the crawl space of the home. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, took time to deodorizer the contaminated site and walked around the home and informed my husband on things we can do to prevent this from happening again and how we can keep other critters and bugs and spiders from coming onto our property and house. He also took the the time to call us the following day to see if our issue had been resolved. I highly recommend them should someone need an animal removed dead or alive.
