A Scottsdale family was in for quite the surprise, after they called for help to remove what they first thought was one single rattlesnake from their front porch.
A Phoenix area family called for help, after they found a rattlesnake on their front porch."It's a season when everyone needs to eat, and that puts them in contact with us a lot of time," said Rattlesnake Solutions owner Bryan Hughes.
Hughes said members of his crew were called out to the family's home, located in Scottsdale. They were first called out to remove a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake, but they eventually removed a bucket full. "A mother rattlesnake gave birth to a bunch of babies on somebody's patio," said Hughes. "Rattlesnakes don't lay eggs. They give live births. The moms stay with the babies and take care of them."
Experts say people need to be extra careful about rattlesnakes during this time of the year, because the moms are very protective of their babies."It's a myth, a really popular myth that baby rattlesnakes are more dangerous," said Hughes. "Baby rattlesnakes have just as much control over venom expenditure as adults, but they are not as bad because they don't have as much venom to give."Hughes, however, said that for the most part, rattlesnakes will keep to themselves.
"If you're not worried about getting a car crash, don't worry too much about rattlesnakes. Don't lose sleep over it," said Hughes.
