Need help in locating and removal of snake - species unknown
This snake needs to be relocated. It slitered into washout by the side of
small preformed pond, moving fast, dislocating rocks as it went. Need advise on how to bring out in open so I can net it and relocate and/or kill it. |

If neither you nor your fish are in danger, I'd leave it be. Snakes are great at eating unwanted slugs, snails, voles, mice, etc. -- Zk (sig compliments of BV) 3500gal pond, 13 pond piggies Oregon, Zone 6 |

Many times, especially in dry times, snakes come to the pond to drink. You would probably have to remove all your rocks to get him to come out of hiding, then leave them removed until he doesn't see the pond as a safe harbor anymore and let him go away on his own. k30a and the watergardening labradors http://www.geocities.com/watergarden...dors/home.html |
