brevity snips

I've heard harassment works (if you have the time)
and clearing out the rockwork so they don't have
hidey holes.

Removing some of the plants from around our ponds and the dense row of holly
bushes against the house may be the reason we don't see as many snakes
around the ponds now. But like possums and raccoons.... when you remove one
another comes along and takes it's place.
