What to do while you wait...

1

Stay calm

Snakes don’t want to harm you — most bites happen when people panic or try to catch them. Take a deep breath and move slowly away.

2

Keep your distance

Stand at least several metres back and don’t try to touch, trap or scare the snake. This keeps both you and the snake safe until help arrives.

3

Keep your children and pets away

Make sure kids and pets are safely inside the house or in a secure area. Curious pets and children can easily make the situation worse.

4

Watch where the snake goes

If it’s safe to do so, watch from a distance and note where the snake goes. This information helps the catcher locate it quickly when they arrive.
