Above is a photo of a Eastern Garter Snake. Eastern garter snakes are one of our most common snakes in Atlanta. Notice the black body with the yellow striping. They typically inhabit areas were there is water. They are active during the day and night. Eastern garter snakes are non-venomous. This snake feeds on lizards, rodents, amphibians, turtles, small fish, insects and birds. Snake problems in Atlanta?
