Matthew Lawson

Hi there, my name is Matthew and welcome to Danger Noodle Snake Removal. I am an insured and licensed wildlife controller, specialising in the safe capture and removal of problem snakes and reptiles from your home or business. 

Originally from langwarrin, I have spent most of my life on the Mornington Peninsula. I know the Peninsula well and love living in such a beautiful part of Victoria.

Ever since I was young I have had a fascination with snakes and reptiles. I think they are beautiful creatures and my goal is to help educate people on their importance to the ecosystem and to show people that snakes and humans can coexist with one another safely.

I hate seeing snakes being killed simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time and that is why I started Danger Noodle Snake Removal. Hopefully through my efforts I can save and relocate them to a safe place where they can live their lives.

I hope that myself and others in the snake and reptile community can help people learn to understand and respect these amazing animals. If people can do that it will be a massive step in the right direction.


Thank you for visiting my website!

Tim Nanninga

Tim has worked with Matt from the very beginning. They both started out at around the same time and after seeing one of Matts first posts on Facebook Tim reached out and they began attending calls as a team.


For the first couple of years Tim and Matt worked and learned together, each with their own skills and techniques for locating  capturing and relocating snakes, constantly backing each other up and learning off one another. Tim is a one of a kind snake catcher who has a knack for sniffing out snakes hiding in even the most difficult places.


He has an incredible respect for these animals and an absolute wealth of knowledge on snake behaviour. His confidence and skills handling even the most defensive snakes is a testament to that knowlege and the skills he and Matt developed together.


Tim runs his own snake relocation service Melbourne Snake Control based out of Bangholm but still regularly attends calls with Matt and for Matt if he is unable to attend himself. He is very friendly and personable making new mates with whoever he meets.


Rest assured if you ever have Tim attend a call from us he will go above and beyond every time!!



Rhiana Hopwood

Rhiana is the newest member to the Danger noodle family. After being notified by a next door neighbor who contacted Matt to relocate a snake, she gave him a call and simply asked if she could come learn first hand how to work with snakes. A year later and she is now a permanent fixture with us.


Originally from New Zealand, Rhiana has always had a passion for animals, in particular reptiles. She studies reptile biology as a hobby and has proven herself more than capable when it comes to working with these animals, showing a care and patience with them that reflects her love of reptiles.


Rhiana loves a good chat and brings a calming presence to people when attending calls. She is very informative and thrives on answering questions so if you ever find yourself in need of our services feel free to ask away, she will confidently answer whatever questions you have.


We are very happy to have her working with us!
