I so despise glue traps and seeing this poor baby stuck is giving me anxiety. THANK you for saving it Bryan! Thank you for educating and not shaming people.
So sweet to see a baby saved, but also getting a bath. 💕 We live in a suburb in Southern California, next to permanent open space (hills with many rocks, boulders, brush, trees). I stopped using any chemicals (insecticides) in the small front yard many years ago. Since then, I have witnessed the natural balance return!! Adorable baby lizards eat ants & tiny crickets. Adult lizards eat larger crickets & other insects. Birds eat insects, including birds on the bushes eating insects. I was so happy as I started seeing that! We got rid of lawn & grass in long parking strip & went to xeriscaping ("desert" landscape, with in ground, drip irrigation where plants are, just to keep them healthy). Really enjoy the bits of open ground, small boulders, cacti, flowering plants, a few Palo verde trees, etc. Have cautioned my husband that we have created a snake oasis, under the trees & low bushes. I was taught by my Mother to always look before putting hands or feet where I can't see. I also wear closed shoes & thick gloves, when I am able to do a little work outside. I enjoy the yard more than ever. And yes, we are definitely in snake country. Lots of brush piles, packrat nests, & tasty rodents (other critters) in hills next door. In 25 years here, have only encountered 2 rattlesnakes. Blessings, Bryan, for the education, & great videos!!
Such skill, patience and care! Thank you so much. I think the little guy realized what was going on. Always a great way to start my day watching your videos! Thanks again.
Great work Bryan! My Uncle Vito was watching this with me and he does not handle snakes but suggested that we try stapling the cardboard of the trap to a solid piece of wood so that both of our hands are free. What do you think? Thank you for what you do! I send videos like this to the people I have trained to handle rattlesnakes for their continuing education. I now have 9 on my team from Morongo Valley to Wonder Valley. We can never have enough conscious and caring people like you and your team protecting our valuable wildlife! Amen!
I love how you guys rescue the snakes stuck in traps! These traps are pretty inhumane.. I used to be terrified of snakes but y’all have seriously changed that. I took my daughter out to find animals and we found what must have been a 12-15” gopher snake. It was literally the coolest thing ever to see how much my daughter loved it and the snake was not acting defensive at all. It was definitely a core memory type of moment for my daughter she absolutely loves snakes now. The work y’all are doing actually does help people and these animals!
Poor little snake. Those traps are just horrific. If homeowners don't want messy kill traps, there are plenty of ideas for live traps. He was pretty chill for his bath. You can now hang out an official Rattlesnake Groomer sign. :) :) All kidding aside, I'm glad you were there so that little snake didn't perish.
I loved your end talk. People just do not think about consequences of their action but most people, when they find out the end result, will never use glue traps again.
It's awful, but sometimes minds change when they are faced with an animal they think they hate, that they've always been told to hate, suffering right in front of them. Not everyone is willing or capable of course, but most people just haven't really had the chance to consider whether or not they truly dislike snakes, or have just been expected to.@@thetowndrunk988
@@RattlesnakeSolutions I love snakes. I wish everyone did. But take my wife, who grew up in the Philippines- her, and everyone else there, absolutely hate snakes, and I can’t change their minds. I’ve tried. I understand their fear- they’ve got some real danger noodles over there- king cobra, Philippine cobra (though not where my wife lives), and a few other nasties. But, bites are very rare, despite the fear. We need more people like you, especially in countries like there, to educate and remove the snakes, so they can continue living and not automatically be killed by fearful rice farmers.
@@RattlesnakeSolutions I was a snake hater before, all snakes I hated. I got into photography, and I live in the Mojave Desert. I was freaked out going out into the desert and my friend was a city boy who did not think about snakes. I thought since I was in their home(snakes) that I would learn about them. I did and I grew to love them but with respect. I remember the first Mojave rattler I encountered; I was so very excited. I came up to the Mojave and it was on an asphalt road in the Mojave Preserve late at night. It ball into a defensive position, rattled at me once and then it allowed me to take many photos of it and then I grabbed a stick and lightly touched it to make it travel off into the desert and get off the road. For years I was in the desert doing my photography and a lot of times it was late at night and into the morning hours. That Mojave was the only rattler I encountered but like I told my city boy best friend, that we were probably always very close to rattlers, but they kept quit allowing us to do our work and to leave them alone.
I had a copperhead stuck with its head on a glue board. I worked for a pest control company in the midwest. We were not allowed to release anywhere. They wanted to take it back to the shop and not be painless about handling it, so I did the only thing I could at the time since my co workers would not have given it a more painless death. I went and buried it near the office and quit later. It sucked. Wish I could have released it alive but with the manager being there, if I did that I'd have been fired and in his words 'blacklisted from pest control as letting one of these things go puts people at risk, no one would hire you.' Thank you for releasing this rattlesnake. I'm glad it got to have a chance.
Great content all the way around, from the info to the video quality. Love the care and respect you show these animals, and your patience with people who don't understand these animals. Thanks!
Awwww ❤!! Thank you guys for saving that poor little Baby !! And you gave him a bath, got him all nice and clean !! Awwww ❤ !! That is so cute 😍 !! Such a cute little guy !! He kind of looks a little fat, I wonder if he had just ate prior to getting stuck? God Bless You For Saving That Poor Baby !! I can't believe how people can do things like that to poor little creatures like that !! Thanks again for doing what you guys do !!
Good video. I was able to release a mouse caught the same way. The unfortunate thing is that you failed to explain that glue boards are not a primary source of pest elimination They are most often (and when correctly used) a part of IPM. That's where a Pest Control Professional performs an inspection of a property, notifies the client of all areas off access, food, water, and harborage for a targeted pest, and then utilizes glueboards, sticky traps, snap traps, or (only when appropriate ) Rodenticides. The success of these measures is on the clients compliance with the IPM recommendations to exclude targeted pests from the residence. I wish you well, and thanks for this video.
Great job! Great video! Loved the information how to release any animal that get caughts on it. Very inhumane, those traps. Thank you for saving that snattlerake. (that is the pet name that I call them)🥰
Wondering, when relocating a baby snake, do they need to stay in their range or can the young ones be relocated to a better and safer environment like a river bed with lots of rock shelter?
I use small insect glue traps for scorpions INSIDE my house never outside. Usually catch crickets or the occasional scorpion if they make it past the pesticide barrier somehow. We use actual mousetraps for suspected rodent problems. Poor baby glad you helped it.
Poor little guy :( I'm so glad you were able to rescue him and clean him up. If nothing else hopefully the stress made him learn to stay in the desert where he belongs. Silly babies don't know they don't belong in glue traps or Walmart lol
I happened upon a lizard caught in one of these traps in our garage. I've got some spray canola oil that got it out nice and quick. We did have a rattler as well years ago, got it out with soapy water, probably not the best thing to have used but it did the trick in that instance.
We used glue traps back in the 80's for mice and rats. I thought back then when I used one inside my house for mice. One day when I got home from work I found a mouse in the trap. It was also stuck to my cats face and whiskers when he grabbed the mouse. I hate those traps! Now I hear about snake owners that use the traps to catch their pets that get out of their cage. These people suggest to others to use the traps to snake owners that can't find their pets. It's on FB and I explain to them how wrong it is. I own a Ca King who just turned 34 years old and his name is Brian.
Living there 20 years and never had a snake. I think that’s what she said. I can handle that. I’m wanting to move to az but the more I watch your videos the more I’m like I better not. 😂😂😂
I worked at a place where they hired a well-known pest control company and I have seen how cruel those traps are. Most mice and rats suffocate when they can't stand up any longer and tire and their face gets covered in the glue. A slow and agonizing death for the victims of these types of traps.
They shouldn't be banned, people just need to be educated on their proper use. In side of the garages or homes they work great, outside they catch anything that will fit in them and that can be a problem.
When I was an exterminator I caught a rattlesnake younger than this one in a glue trap at a hotel. Unfortunately, by the time I found it, the snake had expired. The glue trap was meant for rodents and scorpions.
These traps are atrocious things. Why would anyone purposely want to kill mice or beautiful rattlesnakes like that? After all, if you don't want mice around evolution has kindly privided the rattlesnakes to deal with that.
Poisons SHOULD be outlawed!! But glue traps ARE humane when you are overrun by live-trap savy mice! Bryan gets ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s for his tender handling of this baby snake. I've even freed bugs from stickie-traps. I personally use mineral oil, as that's what the products label advised. Thankyou Bryan for educating those willing to learn!!!! We all live on this Great Planet called Earth! It's time to respect ALL of her creatures!! 👍
I despise glue traps. Its so disgusting that your okay with making something suffer 😪. My mom got glue traps back in the day when they first came to market. I was young and I heard this noise coming from a cupboard. It was like a squeaking whine😢. I opened it up and I saw the most disturbing thing a animal loving child should never seen. It doesn't kill them its trying all means to get free and that means self-harm. Just please 🙏 don't get them. If you need or want to remove try a more non-harmful way. Be kind to everything and One love ✌🏼❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
I’m all for rodent control, but I once saw one badly suffering, slowly dying in a glue trap and it was awful. Nothing should have to die like that. Breaks my heart to see a snake in one.
I wish you would have educated the woman on how horrific glue traps are for ANY living being, I don't care if it's a scorpion or a mouse. No living, breathing being deserves to die like that, except maybe the people who use them. They need to be banned 😡
@@RattlesnakeSolutions Where I live pretty much every person around here kills all rattlers on sight, and we still have tons of them with a lot of bites on livestock, pets, and our children every year. We do however allow all non-venomous to live, I will just say Rattlers breed at a high enough rate that they will likely never be endangered just because of how most of the time only about 3 per farm get killed per year, while there are an average of 10 born per female each year they can have upto 60 per birth. I understand people wanting animals to never be hurt as I agree no animal should be mistreated/tortured. But we have to many children bitten here to ignore them and leave them free to roam our properties.
@@Mr.Constitutionalist427 And you're not really making the situation any safer, but potentially worse. You're not killing the snakes that live on your property, but those that are most experienced in avoiding you. An adult rattlesnake on a property is not a new situation, not a new danger, but a chance encounter where an animal that has successfully avoided you for years is discovered for the first time. It's feeling safe instead of being safe, and an in depth look at the ecology of the area and what is actually happening would force someone who is actually interested in the safety of the kids and pets to consider giving up the "common sense" approach that fails so many. Aside from that, you just come in here to a page that's obviously about conservation and study of urban/wildlife conflict with a comment of "Just kill it." Let's be honest about your intentions here.

@@RattlesnakeSolutions Other snakebite victims have reported getting hospital bills exceeding $240,000. The family of a 9-year-old girl bit by a snake at summer camp got their insurance provider to cover a $142,938 hospital bill.

Nice job with that little one, Bryan. I try to advocate against glue traps any time the topic comes up. Those things are the worst.
Maybe some "Pest Control Guys" need a Rattlesnake orientation!
Seems like theres a lot of gated communities in Arizona whats the reason?
Because there is a lot of money in Arizona. Most of these houses are 1-2 million dollar houses
You did a great job Brian 😊
