Two copperhead snakes were found at a school in the City of Casey on Friday 21 October.
Snakebusters snake catcher Raymond Hoser was called to the school by the principal to remove the fully grown, pregnant snakes from the property.
Mr Hoser said it was unusual to see both snakes under the same rock during mating season since the snakes were both female.
Victorian residents can expect to see more snakes in their local areas as it starts to warm up.
Mr Hoser said, on average, he typically receives three to five calls a day from people needing snakes caught and removed from their properties or public areas.
The main snakes that populate the Pakenham, Berwick and the surrounding areas are Tiger and Copperhead snakes.
Always exercise caution and try to avoid snakes if you see one in public.
“If seen, let them move on,” Mr Hoser said.
“If they hang around for some days, call a snake catcher.”
Mr Hoser also advises those with pets to train them to avoid snakes.
“They only bite when they are attacked,” Mr Hoser said.
