it possible to trap such a snake?


A quick google search turned up http://www.snakeguard.com/.
I have no idea how effective it might be... ;-)


There is a good write up by a pest control person at
http://www.aaanimalcontrol.com/snake-trapping.htm. Note that one thing
he said on that page is that "snake trapping outside is usually a silly
option, and I usually only place snake traps inside a house".


Have fun whatever you do. :-)
