In Georgia, snakes on your property or in your home can present various risks. While many snakes are non-venomous and help control pest populations, some species, such as copperheads, cottonmouths, and rattlesnakes, are venomous and can pose serious health threats. Snake bites from these species can cause severe pain, swelling, tissue damage, and in rare cases, can be life-threatening without prompt medical treatment. Additionally, the presence of snakes can indicate an underlying rodent problem, as snakes are often attracted to areas with abundant prey. Beyond physical danger, the sight of a snake can cause significant fear and stress for residents. Addressing a snake infestation promptly and safely is essential to ensure the well-being and peace of mind of those in the household.
