A snake in the garage, the crawl space or right inside the house? Keep yourself, kids and pets well back from it, then call to reach a local snake removal pro. The phone line for snake removal Mooresville NC is open 24/7, nights and weekends included.
One call to (844) 595-3326 puts you through to a private snake removal service that works around Mooresville, so you do not have to work through a list of animal control and wildlife numbers yourself. Even the NC Wildlife Resources Commission does not send people out to trap and remove wildlife, so removal is a job you hire a private company for.
Have these details ready when you call us:
Snake in your home right now?
Call (844) 595-3326
We advise asking the company what the visit includes before you book professional snake removal, for example whether someone will check the crawl space as well as the room where the snake was seen.
Mouse droppings in the garage or crawl space are worth mentioning on the call. If a snake is loose inside right now, our guide on a snake in the house covers the next ten minutes.
NC Wildlife calls the copperhead the most common and widespread venomous snake in North Carolina, and in many areas of the state it is the only one. Our copperhead removal page covers what to do when you find one, how to recognize an adult from a distance and when to call. For big black snakes, see black rat snake removal; NC State Extension lists the eastern rat snake as harmless.

People often call a snake exterminator expecting a spray. NC State Extension says commercial snake repellents have not been shown to work, so snake pest control is not a spray job. Real snake control around a house means taking out the snake that is there and making it harder for the next one to get in.
For animal control snake removal, check with your town or county animal services first. The companies we connect you with are private businesses. For the yard side, our tips to keep snakes away cover wood piles, rock piles, mulch beds and tall grass.
A snake catcher gets the snake out of the house so nobody in the family has to get close. Ask what happens to the snake afterwards, because Extension notes that moving snakes can raise their risk of dying.
Keep finding shed skins, or buying a home? A snake inspection can go along with your home inspection.
Extension says sealing small openings makes it harder for animals to get in. Our snake exclusion page shows which entry points matter.
Extension notes that eastern rat snakes feed heavily on rodents and suggests removing the things that shelter snakes or their prey, so deal with any rodent infestation too.
Call if the snake is there now, with the details from the list above. Use the form when the job can wait.
We pass your call or request to an independent local company near you.
Ask the company for its price and arrival time, and say yes only when both work for you.
Ask the company to show you how the snake most likely got in, so you can decide about sealing it.
Stay back and do not try to catch, kill or move the snake. The NC Wildlife Resources Commission says the best response to finding a snake is to leave it alone and give it plenty of space, and that a large share of copperhead bites happen when people try to capture, kill or handle one. If anyone is bitten, get medical care right away; see what to do after a copperhead bite.
For the step-by-step version, including what to do if it disappears, read our guide on a snake in your home.
Each company sets its own price, so ask for it before any work starts, and ask whether there is a charge if the snake has moved on before they arrive. For what usually changes the price, see our page on snake removal cost.
Mooresville sits on the east side of Lake Norman, so many homes here have docks, boathouses and rock walls along the water. Our guide to Lake Norman snakes explains which ones turn up there. Inland, wooded lots, pine straw beds and crawl spaces give snakes plenty of cover. Just south, the town of Davidson has its own page on snake removal in Davidson, NC. Our page on Mooresville neighborhoods has a note on each of these 55 neighborhoods, grouped by setting:
Lake access and waterfront
Ponds, pools and trails
Townhomes and condos
Private yards and wooded lots
Call for professional snake removal when the snake is inside your home, garage, crawl space or attic, or close to where kids or pets play. For a snake passing through the yard, NC Wildlife says the best response is to leave it alone and give it plenty of space, and that in most cases it will move out of the area on its own.
If the snake is there now, call the number on this page. Your call goes to an independent local company near Mooresville. If it has already left and you want the house checked or sealed, the form works too.
Ask the company about sealing the gaps the snake used, such as crawl space vents, gaps under doors and holes in the foundation. NC State Extension says sealing small openings makes it harder for animals to get in. No one can promise a yard will never see a snake again.
Any time. The line is open 24/7, and the form can be sent whenever it suits you.
