Trapping

[Zephyr]

What I've seen people use are just holes in the ground or hiding spots to "trap" snakes. It's not that hard to take on a cornered snake. :P

oh also what works pretty well is i got 8 2 1/2' x 2 1/2' black mats on my hill, they work great because they provide a dry shelter with heat

I've been thinking of putting a couple of old mats down out in the field near my house. I've seen a garter or two over there -- not too many there, but maybe they'll find my hiding spot and lurk around under it once in a while......

do you have flames in ur area?

That's a whole lot closer than a 5 hour plane trip! But there nice Easterns here, so I'll try not to be too envious.

we should make a trap....... all of us on the site...... that have wild snakes around or snakes lost in our house....... should try a bunch of things and post which ones work best....... for example....
we could make a sort of minnow trap with one flat side and place bait and some hides in it....... i put some fish in a baggie once to get my snake out from under the fridg once and that worked...... so anyone have any ideas for a harmless trap that we could make and test????
