Why snake hibernate?
In areas of the world where there is winter, snakes seek subsurface shelter during the winter months. In the mountains, large snakes sometimes share dens, presumably because there aren't enough cavities for each snake to have its own, but in other areas most do so individually. But also, by hibernating together, they cluster, thus conserving their heat, as they are 'cold-blooded'. Some snakes commonly use stump and root holes, mammal burrows, and loose soil for their dens, it's rare for snakes to winter in buildings; they seem to prefer natural underground retreats. In the Northern hemisphere, most snakes are in or close to their wintering sites from mid-October to mid-March. While in their dens they cease all activity to conserve energy (they are already cold blooded, and need to avoid freezing) and effectively survive hibernation.

When do garden snakes mostly come out?
The best time to catch one is mid- morning on a sunny day. Snakes like to bask to raise their body temperatures and will look for exposed, sunny spots to catch the warming sun. Trails or roads near wetlands are your best bet for finding snakes. Unfortunately, the use of roads for basking leads to a major source of mortality for garter snakes! It's tragic, but there are probably many snakes that are killed on roads each year by well meaning people on their way to visit the snake dens
When do snakes come out?
Different snakes come out at different time. Many snakes come out at night. For example, in Australia, many of the most poisonous snakes come out at night. But there are also snakes who come out in the day for example certain rattle snakes come out in the day to search for prey. Snakes are cold-blooded and depend on the temperature of their surroundings. If it is too hot, such as in deserts, they are more likely to be out in evenings and night. In other more temperate areas they are more likely to be out with the sun.
