For land snakes, pour a line of salt around your boundary and outside your
doorways. It must be at least 10mm high. Snakes don't like salt, you never
see any on the beaches so that should prove this theory.
Make sure the salt is fine and not rock salt, the snakes can be injured by
the rock salt.

I'm all for balance in nature and preserve the animals and bugs
and
serpents and all that crap but I just have too many snakes in my yard. I
have
removed by hand ( they're garden snakes) 10 this month alone. They are an
annoyance to my children and visitors and I would like to rid my yard of
them.
I tried that "snake away" product and it's totally useless ( Yes I
followed the
directions closely). Any other suggestions to rid my yard of these
snakes?.
Also, I won't be responding to any posts by those condemning me for
wanting my
yard snake-free so don't bother, save your condemnation for someone else.
Sorry, thought I had to mention that after reading some of these threads.


Thanks in advance for any useful advice.
