Default Ah... WE have a "bill the snake" now...

Saw a 1-2" long head stickout out on the rocks today. Probably too small to
harm the fish, or frogs, but I'm sure he'll go after the salamanders in the
pond, and the wife wants him gone.

If memory serves, a minnow trap is the best solution?

Turns out we have a lot of Nightshade growing locally, and all along one
edge of the pond, so I know he'll dart in there, if we try to snag him with
a net.

Maybe the cats will grab him... he was too far away, and too small to make
out what type he was.
