Snake sightings along Manchester's Hop Brook banks are almost always a harmless garter or milk snake rather than either of Connecticut's rare venomous species.
Call (844) 924-1337Connecticut's two venomous species, the timber rattlesnake and northern copperhead, are both genuinely rare statewide, and Manchester isn't among the handful of towns where the rattlesnake is still documented, so a sighting along Hop Brook or the Hockanum River is almost always something else.
The eastern garter snake and eastern milk snake account for the large majority of calls here, both harmless, which makes correct identification the real work behind most Manchester snake removals. Call (844) 924-1337 to discuss pest control help in Manchester and check service availability.

Keep a safe distance and avoid trying to catch or corner it yourself, especially if you're not sure of the species. Describe the sighting to PestGuardians; identification and an assessment of possible entry gaps can help determine the next step.
If it's a one-time sighting and the snake moves on its own, that's often the end of it. A snake that repeatedly appears in one area, or whose species is uncertain, warrants professional assessment; do not try to capture or relocate it yourself.
For a snake in or around your home, describe the sighting from a distance and discuss the identification and access concerns before removal is planned. Call PestGuardians to discuss your pest concern and check local service availability.
