Venomous snakes put not only you, the homeowner, at risk, but also the safety of your pets. Please be cautious of any snake you come across. Some common species of snakes in the Cape Cod area include:

  • Eastern hognose snake: As its name suggests, the hognose snake has a unique pig-like nose and its diet consists primarily of amphibians like toads. The Eastern hognose, although it has an intimidating defense, is not dangerous to humans. The hognose snake prefers sandy areas.
  • Ring-necked snake: Likely Cape Cod's most common snake, the ring-necked snake also poses no poisonous threat to humans, as it feeds mostly on amphibians as well. They are often found in woodland areas. These solitary snakes sometimes make their way into buildings.

Common Snake Complaints

Snakes will usually get into homes when their natural habitat's resources are not sufficient; food, water and shelter are all appealing reasons for snakes to get inside Cape Cod homes. Baby snakes will also sometimes get into homes' foundations by accident.

Professional Snake Control & Safety

Various methods of exclusion help reduce the possibility of encountering snakes in residential zones.

  • Seal any holes on the exterior of buildings large enough for snakes to get through.
  • Cut back tall grasses and weeds and keep wood piles far enough away from homes to eliminate hiding places.
  • In addition, property owners can make modifications to eliminate prey species that attract snakes to the area.
