    Re: Best demusking remedies

    Aw, now I feel like I've missed out on something! As much time as I spend harassing snakes, I've never been musked on...

    But maybe you could try a small amount of kerosene? It sounds odd, but my grandpa self-stains a lot of furniture, and that stuff gets wood stain off of skin... Of course, the smell of kerosene is pretty bad too, so I guess that'd depend on how dead-set you are on getting the musk off!

    Why would you mind musk at all?! It is the sweetest scent on the earth. I am thinking of making a perfume, 100% natural, organic, vegan.. humanely collected snake musk perfume!

    I would wear that every day and happily explain to people, it came out of my snakes butts. And since they are my friends, I will proudly wear it for all of eternity.

    Well, in real life, I actually don't have any friends. I have agoraphobia, so my snakes are my only friends that can physically be "there" for me. I know they wouldn't mind the musk smell, since it comes from them... Hah.

    I haven't experienced much garter musk, but tomato juice seems to work for neutralizing skunk musk, so it may be worth trying it for garter musk.

    Someone should test that, see how snakes react if you pick them up smelling like musk... but not that particular snakes musk.. not sure how though. Whatever.

    It's not worth it. it would be a pain, time consuming, and just not worth it
