Trusted Northern Beaches Snake Handler — Local, Licensed & Wildlife-Focused

If you’ve spotted a snake on your property anywhere on the Northern Beaches, remain calm and contact a licensed professional straight away. Sydney Snake Catcher provides fast, humane and fully licensed snake relocation for homes, businesses, workplaces and public spaces throughout the region. Our experienced handlers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, offering reliable emergency response whenever a snake is sighted.

Snakes are regularly encountered across the Northern Beaches — from residential areas such as Manly, Dee Why, Brookvale and Narrabeen, to bush-backed properties near national parks, lagoons and coastal reserves. With extensive bushland, creek systems and sand-dune environments woven through the region, snakes may enter backyards, sheds, garages, construction sites and outdoor areas while searching for food or shelter.

Our team specialises in identifying and safely capturing both venomous and non-venomous snakes, including Eastern Brown Snakes, Red-bellied Black Snakes and Carpet Pythons. Every snake is relocated to suitable natural habitat, protecting your family, pets and the animal itself. No matter where you are located on the Northern Beaches, you can rely on a prompt response from a trained expert with strong local knowledge of snake behaviour.

If you see a snake, do not attempt to handle it yourself. Keep people and pets well away from the area and contact us immediately for professional assistance.

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.
Never try to capture or kill snakes—this is both dangerous and illegal.

Common Northern Beaches Reptile Species

The Northern Beaches’ warm coastal climate, bushland reserves and freshwater lagoons create ideal conditions for native snake species, particularly during spring and summer when activity increases. Residential properties can unintentionally attract snakes by offering shelter and food sources such as rodents, frogs and small reptiles. Staying alert and acting quickly when a snake is sighted helps reduce risk and ensures snakes are safely relocated.

Northern Beaches Snake Catching & Snake Removal Services

The Northern Beaches is bordered by large areas of national park, coastal bushland and lagoon systems that support a wide range of native wildlife. Snakes commonly move through these environments along creek lines, bush corridors and dune vegetation while travelling between feeding and shelter areas, occasionally passing through nearby residential properties.

Gardens with dense planting, rock features, timber stacks and shaded outdoor spaces can provide attractive shelter, particularly during warmer weather or after rainfall. Homes located close to bushland, lagoons or coastal reserves may experience occasional snake activity during peak seasons. Understanding how snakes use the local landscape helps residents recognise why sightings occur and encourages calm, informed responses when snakes are encountered.
