If you have a snake problem, Hill Country Snake Removal can help. We are normally available 24/7 for immediate snake removal. With 30+ years of experience and a deep understanding of snake behavior, our experts can safely and humanely remove snakes from your home or business. Hill Country Snake Removal humanely relocates snakes further away from people than where they were found in an area that is safer for both the snake and the community. Rattlesnakes are a common sight in our area, from hiking trails to backyards. Hill Country Snake Removal is here to help you handle these encounters safely through educational classes. I have taught for individual families at their homes, HOA’s, Homeschool Co-Op’s, Community Libraries, Public and Private Schools. Learn more about educational classes below.

Texas Snake Identification and Safety Class

I have been teaching this class for over four years now for audiences of 1 to over 300 and from ages 4 to 80+. The class is geared more towards adults; however, the excitement of seeing live snakes keeps the younger audience eager for more. The class is normally taught indoors utilizing AV equipment. I bring 10-15 live snakes to the class, both venomous and non-venomous, sometimes including my 12’ Python “Sunny.”
