Snake Season

SNAKE SEASON
With the hot weather continuing we encourage the community to please take extra care and watch out for snakes in your local area.
To discourage snakes from entering your property, ensure your garden is well maintained, clear of rubbish, and keep your grass short!
If you see a snake:
- Do not approach it or attempt to kill or capture it.
- Keep your distance, stay calm and advise others that there is a snake close by and to be aware.
If you encounter a snake, call:
- Wires 1300 131 554
- National Parks & Wildlife 1300 072 75
