Have seen the tracks in the snow.

Any suggestions besides Dr. T's snake repellant pellets?

Can't wait to hear what Andytv's funny bloody spanaird. has to say.

If it's a king snake, leave it alone. It'll eat yard rodents. But, if you're such a pu$$y that the sight of a snake makes you pi$$ in your pants get a 12 gauge.

[sarcasm]

I'm also concerned about the kids, two of whom are autistic, er, handicapable and liable to pick it up...8-[

Reminds me of my youth....The Hot Wheels drag race set.

As to the snakes....we had wire-mesh traps in Guam. Baited with mice - dead or alive didn't seem to matter. Very effective. Prob different kind of snake, but worth a try

don't know Chuckles...... does he have one you can borrow for a couple days..?? 😕

:-k

I shot a copperhead (with 12 gage..👍) last summer in the yard.. I noticed about 10 ft away was a dead mouse my wife's cat had brought home and killed.... I wondered if the snake was going after the mouse.... 😟

Your wife's cat, not the family cat?

No, it appears everyone in the Drafter household has their own pet. Drafter had the titmouse.

😟

Jet, is that what you called it?

Good idea. Now where to find the trap.

Btw, last time, before I begrudgingly lopped off his head, I called the county regarding this (and a skunk). They referred me to a contractor who wanted to charge me over 200 bucks for the snake alone.

did he have a mongoose..?? I bet he uses a mongoose... 😟
