Whether you like snakes or you’re deadly afraid of them, you most likely don’t want them entering your home or yard—especially if you have children and pets—and when it comes to removing them, it’s best to leave it to the Columbia snake removal experts.

While most snakes in SC are not venomous and bites are relatively rare, there are 4 common snakes of South Carolina that are venomous, and 3 out of those 4 are deadly enough to kill a human.

Harlequin Coral Snake (Micrurus fulvius)

Highly venomous—feeds on lizards, frogs, and smaller snakes—typically secretive and docile but full envenomation (secretion of venom during a bite) is enough to kill 5 adults. This is one creature we take a lot of precautions with during our Columbia snake removal services.

Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake (Crotalus adamanteus)

One of the most dangerous rattlesnakes in the Americas—shelters in tunnels and holes, emerging in the early morning or afternoon—disposition varies (some will approach silently while others rattle furiously from 20-30 ft away).

Timber Rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus)

Although typically shy and docile, this creature’s abnormally long fangs and high venom yield make it one of the most potentially lethal snakes in North America.

Copperhead (Agkistrodon contortix)

While venomous, these snakes are generally docile and bites are rarely fatal—they typically “freeze” when frightened—most bites happen because people unwittingly get too close to them.

Do not, under any circumstances, poke, annoy, or try to handle these snakes—leave these venomous predators to the Columbia snake removal experts.

There are of course many other snakes in Columbia, most of which are essentially harmless in terms of venom but still present problems like disease, parasites, skin infections, stealing chicken eggs, and terrifying your pets and children.

We’ll take care of ’em so you don’t have to.

Problems With DIY Snake Removal

There is a high chance of getting bitten or contracting disease.
You may not know what you’re looking for—there are clear signs of snake infestations that don’t involve actually seeing the snakes themselves, so you can miss a lot of clues as to where they are and where they’re coming from.
It’s not just about getting snakes out, but keeping them out—this means removing food sources, sealing up areas in your home (both inside and out), setting up copper mesh, and a host of other chores.

At the end of the day, it’s better to leave it to the Columbia snake removal experts.
