Trapping

[Snake lover 3-25]

cool we can add our tested traps to that!!!!! do you have any ideas to try out???

drink bottle trap!!!! large drinks bottle and some soft plastic tubing or a cloth tubing, secure the tubing to the neck of the bottle on the inside of it puncture the bottle with holes so it can breath. put your snakes favourite food in it, earth worms or pinkies, the snake should crawl inside the bottle for the food and be unable to get out again.
the plastic tubing should be flexible enough that the snake can push its way through.

Without question, any glue, mechanical or electrical traps are all evil devices, and should not exist.

The best way to "gather" a snake is just to lay out hides. Old road signs, fridge doors, plywood and other flat items work well.

The best method of recovery inside the home, sheer luck.

I found it a whole lot less stressful to just secure the little buggers in the first place.
