Holsworthy is not just a name in a list.
Holsworthy lies about 31 kilometres south-west of central Sydney, placing it within the South-West & Macarthur response cluster.
The same service area includes compact homes, distribution sites, paddocks and construction zones. Access control, animals and materials on the ground change the search plan.

“It was right there a second ago”
Places worth describing—not poking.
The catcher’s search starts from the last reliable sighting. Do not pull these areas apart yourself.
- 01inside a garage or open shed
- 02around poultry, feed or rodent shelter
- 03under construction or landscaping material
- 04near a dam, creek or wetland edge
- 05beneath pallets or equipment in a yard
Before a catcher sets off
Three useful Holsworthy questions.
Is work continuing near the last sighting?
Which gate suits a catcher carrying equipment?
Are pets, poultry or livestock safely contained?
Species context—not a remote identification
Colour is not a safety test.
Eastern brown snakes occur through open and modified landscapes, while red-bellied black snakes favour wetter creek and river habitat. Macarthur’s bush edges may support a broader range of reptiles.
Take a zoomed photograph only from behind glass or another secure position. Never move closer for identification.
After the immediate problem
