Python Control in Florida


Pythons and other snakes can certainly be a nuisance. In 1992 large numbers of pythons escaped from pet stores ravaged by Hurricane Andrew. Experts also believe that pet owners have released them into the wild once they grew too large. Since then their numbers have substantially increased to where there are thousands of pythons in the wilds of South Florida.

Since the death of a toddler strangled by a pet python, the Governor has decided that experienced herpetologists will be called upon to capture and properly euthanize these animals. So far fifteen permits have been issued and those who have actively used these permits will receive an extension. All that is required thus far is to be a resident of Florida, have a digital camera and a GPS system to mark the site where the python was found.

We here at A All Animal Control strongly believe that this is the perfect opportunity to start up a Nuisance Wildlife Control Center. What better way to be out there doing something you love while helping out the population?

Check out this informative video.

After seeing that who wouldn't want to jump in on this opportunity in Nuisance Wildlife Control?
