24/7 Emergency Snake Removal in Louisville, KY & Southern Indiana
Licensed, insured, and humane — serving the entire Louisville metro region 24/7.
Call (502) 200-8928Some snake situations can't wait for a scheduled appointment: a copperhead on the patio where kids play, a snake loose inside your living space, or an unidentified snake cornered in a garage or bedroom. Our emergency line is answered 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and we prioritize dispatch for situations involving venomous snakes, snakes inside occupied living areas, and snakes near children or pets. Response is typically within 1–2 hours depending on your location and current demand.
While you wait for our technician: keep people and pets away from the area, and if the snake is in a room, close the door and push a towel into the gap beneath it — containment is the single most helpful thing you can do. Don't attempt to catch, corner, or kill the snake; that's how the majority of bites happen. If you can safely watch it from a distance, knowing where it went saves significant search time when we arrive.

24/7 Emergency Snake Removal FAQs
How fast can you get here?
Typically within 1–2 hours anywhere in our Louisville and Southern Indiana service area, depending on your location and current call volume. Venomous snakes and snakes inside living spaces get priority dispatch. Call (502) 200-8928 — the line is answered around the clock.
Does emergency service cost more?
After-hours and priority-dispatch calls may carry an additional fee compared to scheduled service. We quote the full cost over the phone before dispatching, so there are no surprises.
What should I do while I wait?
Contain if possible (close the door, block the gap beneath it), keep people and pets away, and watch the snake from a safe distance if you can. Do not attempt capture. If someone has been bitten by a venomous snake, call 911 first — medical care takes priority over removal.
What if the snake disappears before you arrive?
We search the likely hiding points — snakes hole up in predictable places — and if it has left the structure, we identify and seal how it got in. Note the last place you saw it; that detail meaningfully narrows the search.
