Snake & Lizard Control in the UAE

Snake encounters cluster around villas backing onto desert, farms and wadis — the animals follow rodents and shade, not people. House geckos, by contrast, are harmless insect-eaters; most “lizard problems” are really about reducing the insects that attract them.

For snakes, the professional response is safe removal plus habitat change: clearing ground cover against walls, controlling rodents and sealing gaps under gates. The 73 companies below list reptile work; if you see a snake, keep distance and call rather than approaching it.

Frequently asked questions

Are UAE snakes venomous?

A few native species are, including vipers found near dunes and rocky ground. Treat any unidentified snake as potentially venomous and call a professional for removal.

How do I keep snakes out of my garden?

Remove what they want: control rodents, cut dense ground cover, lift stored materials off the ground, and seal gaps under gates and boundary walls. Repellent granules alone are unreliable.

How do I reduce geckos indoors?

Reduce their food — flying insects around lights. Better door seals, window screens and outside lighting changes do more than any spray aimed at the geckos themselves.
