Brisbane Snake Catchers

This is the second time I have requested a snake identification from these guys and I’m so glad I did. Turns out the snake is a harmless Keelback ( Swamp Tiger). We live out on a bush block in the South Burnett and do appreciate all our native wildlife, including snakes, so reassuring to know this fellow is harmless. These guys are very prompt and helpful and all for free!

Saw this fella curled up next to the curb. Got a bit concerned because there's school kids that use the footpath right next to the curb and didnt want them getting harmed. Not a snake expert but the size of it made me get a little worried about the safety of the people that pass by here. Took this picture and googled on how to identify / have this snake taken away. Brisbane Snake Catchers offered the free identification service through attached pictures. Sent them this picture and within a couple of hours they got back to me with the information. Turns out it's a harmless/non-venomous Coastal python and safe if left alone. I am very very impressed with the way BSC offer this service to the community and help keep everyone safe. Would highly recommend them to help identify if you see one. Didnt have to call them out but I am sure if they are this efficient helping identify a venemous/non-venemous snake via pictures, they would be extremely professional to come out and catch one if they had to. Thank you BSC.

This is a great service, identifying snakes for people unfamiliar with them. Being from NZ we were very unfamiliar with snake species and when we saw this snake on the beach, a quick google search led us here where we could get the snake identified. The reply was quicker than I expected and we got a link with more information on the type of snake. Glad we were cautious as it was a venomous snake.

Drew did a superb job for me. Courteous kind and thorough can't ask for anything more. Offered snake preparedness tips. Although we're both aware only too well that they are a standard on acreage. Phone call in the morning out to my place in the arvo. Excellence all round

Very helpful and prompt service. Some great information on the webpage also to help us identify the snake before they replied. Gave our family confidence to have it confirmed by them within the hour. Make sure you check your junk mail when you are waiting for their reply though.

Quick response! And correct identification! I walked outside to hang laundry and this fella was waiting for me. I’m from Ohio in America so I’m not exactly snake smart other than knowing to back away. Our laundry area has a doggie door for our pup & 3 cats. After I secured them I went back out to snap a photo and emailed the Snake Catchers. Hearing back from them so promptly put our minds at ease bc we are in a area populated with Brown snakes. The fella is a Lesser Black Whip so not such an urgent threat if it was a Brown snake! The information they provided to me about the snake type was so helpful! I now feel safer and a bit more snakesmart 🐍 Thank you for your help!!
