Warrawee has leafy gardens, sandstone features, and quiet pockets that allow reptiles to move naturally. But instead of focusing on the suburb itself, this entry explains the reptiles, their behaviour, their hiding spots, and why calling Urban Reptile Removal is the safest thing to do when a snake appears. Snakes do not enter properties to confront people. They move through the environment for natural reasons, following food, shelter, warmth, or shade depending on the season. They avoid people whenever possible. They only show defensive behaviour when cornered, blocked, or startled at close range.
Snakes behave predictably when you understand their needs. They follow prey such as frogs, skinks, insects, rodents, and small birds. They look for quiet sheltered spots to hide during hot parts of the day. They warm themselves on driveways, paths, rocks, or sunny edges before retreating to shade. They move silently and use narrow gaps, fences, garden beds, and natural cover to cross a property. When a resident tries to chase or trap a snake, the animal disappears into deeper hiding spots, making removal harder and increasing the risk of a close encounter. Calling a trained snake catcher prevents this and ensures a calm, safe, and efficient snake removal.
Warrawee has consistent sightings of five reptile species: the golden crowned snake, red bellied black snake, diamond python, green tree snake, and blue tongued lizard. Each species behaves differently and needs a different approach to remove it safely.
Golden crowned snakes are small, slender, and active at night. They have a pale yellow marking across the head and a pink or reddish underside. Although they are venomous, their bites normally cause only mild local symptoms. Many residents mistake them for baby brown snakes due to their size. Golden crowned snakes hide under garden edging, rocks, timber, and damp shaded corners. They feed on small lizards, eggs, insects, and frogs. After rain, they move more frequently and are often seen crossing paths or driveways at night. They are quick and vanish into gaps easily, which is why professional snake removal is essential.
Red bellied black snakes are well known across Warrawee. Their glossy black upper body and bright red or pink belly make them easy to identify. They prefer moist environments and are often seen near shaded gardens, drainage lines, frog areas, and damp vegetation. They feed on frogs, fish, skinks, and small snakes. They warm up in the morning and then move into shade for the rest of the day. Although venomous, they are naturally shy and try to escape. When cornered, they may flatten their body or hiss as a warning. A trained snake catcher handles them safely and calmly.
Diamond pythons are gentle, non venomous snakes that are excellent climbers. They have patterned black and yellow scales that blend with fences, trees, roofs, and garden features. They are common in Warrawee due to the presence of roof cavities, trees, small mammals, and quiet backyards. Diamond pythons feed on rats and possums, which makes them beneficial for controlling rodents. They often rest on verandas, under eaves, in rafters, on warm retaining walls, or inside roof cavities. Although harmless to humans, they are large and strong, so professional removal is needed to prevent injury to either the snake or the resident.
Green tree snakes are fast moving, slim, and harmless. They range in colour from bright green to olive, grey, or almost black with a yellow underside. They have large eyes and excellent vision. When frightened, they spread their body slightly, showing flashes of pale blue between the scales, which can startle residents. They climb easily and often appear in hedges, trees, garages, fence tops, and pool areas. They feed on frogs, skinks, and small fish. They move quickly and vanish into vegetation almost instantly. A trained snake catcher understands their typical movement patterns and knows where to search.
Blue tongued lizards are extremely common and are one of the most frequently misidentified reptiles. These slow moving skinks have a bright blue tongue used as a threat display. They rustle loudly through leaves and often startle people, who think they have seen a snake. Blue tongues hide under pot plants, behind garden equipment, near sheds, under decks, and in warm, quiet corners. They feed on insects, snails, slugs, fruit, and leftover pet food. They are harmless, but residents often prefer a professional check to be certain of what they saw.
Warrawee properties provide many hiding places that snakes use naturally. During local snake removal callouts, Urban Reptile Removal often finds snakes in the following locations:
behind hot water systems and air conditioners
under pot plants and raised tubs
inside garages behind storage boxes
beneath sandstone retaining walls
in roof cavities or wall gaps
inside garden sheds behind tools or equipment
under timber, tiles, or scrap building materials
inside dense shrubs, bamboo, or hedges
around pool pump equipment
inside compost piles and mulch beds
behind water features, statues, or rockeries
along fence lines and narrow side paths
under decks, steps, and raised outdoor structures
inside shaded leaf litter in quiet corners
Once you call Urban Reptile Removal, there is no need to follow the snake. Snakes hide silently, and following them often makes removal harder because it drives them deeper into unreachable spots. A trained snake catcher knows the hiding patterns of each species and will use a structured, calm search to locate the snake efficiently. Most snakes are found within a small distance of where they were last seen.
After removal, we explain why the snake was there and what you can do to reduce future sightings. Chemical repellents, powders, and ultrasonic devices do not work. Effective prevention is practical and based on reducing food sources and hiding places. Useful measures include mowing grass regularly, trimming vegetation close to fences and walls, organising sheds and garages, storing timber off the ground, removing unused building materials, reducing rodent activity, securing pet food, clearing pathways, and keeping shaded corners tidy.
If a snake enters your home in Warrawee, this is considered an emergency snake removal. Snakes can enter through sliding door gaps, open garages, holes near pipes, or gaps under doors. Urban Reptile Removal responds quickly and calmly to secure the property and remove the snake.
