Artarmon is not just a name in a list.
Artarmon lies about 9 kilometres north-west of central Sydney, placing it within the Lower North Shore response cluster.
A snake may be reported in a roof, courtyard, basement or foreshore garden. Building level, parking access and the nearest secure entrance can save time on arrival.

Before a catcher sets off
Three useful Artarmon questions.
Which building level and unit or lot is involved?
Can security or strata provide immediate access?
Was the snake last seen above ground, in a cavity or on a slope?
Species context—not a remote identification
Colour is not a safety test.
Diamond pythons are well suited to treed, sandstone parts of Sydney and may use roof spaces. Small crowned snakes also occur in moist shelter; any unidentified animal should be given space.
Take a zoomed photograph only from behind glass or another secure position. Never move closer for identification.
After the immediate problem
Make the property easier to inspect.
No Sydney property can honestly be guaranteed “snake-proof”. These practical steps reduce shelter and make future sightings easier to manage.
- 1Seal accessible service-room gaps.
- 2Keep basement storage raised and visible.
- 3Prune dense growth away from doors and steps.
- 4Have roof-space wildlife entry points assessed safely.
