A great post from a fellow catcher, we are very interested to know as well,
🐍 HOW MUCH WOULD SOMEONE HAVE TO PAY YOU TO RISK YOUR LIFE? 🐍
It’s a genuine question!
As snake catchers, the majority of snakes we deal with are highly venomous, and one wrong move could have life-threatening consequences.
Yet, surprisingly, there are still people who believe snake catching should be a free service or council / government payment .
Some snake catchers charge more, others charge considerably less, but what many people don’t see are the costs behind the scenes. Fuel, insurance, licensing, equipment, vehicle maintenance, training and, of course, our time.
We’re not just charging you to pick up a snake. We’re charging for the knowledge and risk involved in safely removing a potentially deadly animal from your property.
And yes, we choose to do this job because we’re passionate about snakes, wildlife and keeping our community safe. But passion doesn’t pay the bills!
We understand that everyone’s financial situation is different, and we will always do our best to help people where we can. ❤️
So here’s my question to you…
💰 How much would someone have to pay YOU to approach, catch and safely relocate a highly venomous snake?
$50? $100? $500? Or is there simply no amount of money that would convince you?
I’m genuinely interested to hear your answers! 👇🐍
