I have noticed a lot of snakes hanging around our flower beds and hiding under our porch.?

Does anyone have any tips to re-locate these little guys back to their natural habitat or keep them from housing under our porch?

I have noticed a lot of snakes hanging around our flower beds and hiding under our porch.?
Here are some ideas: (1) get a cat, (2) look for rodents - that is probably what they are doing, (3) spread some poison around there - they won't like it, (this could include things designed for other pests like a commercial product or even moth balls (4) clear out the underbrush and such, (5) move yourself!
Reply:You might try throwing a lot of moth balls around. What a horrible problem....good luck!
Reply:Moth Balls will keep them away. I live in Lower Alabama and there are a lot of them out of there. Put them on the perimeter of your house and around your flower bed.
Reply:There is a product called "snake-away" that should get rid of them. The smell and the taste of it is repulsive to them. You may have to google it to find a supplier near you.
Reply:Plastic owls. A lot of people put them out to keep the snakes away. They swear it works. I've never had the problem, myself, but I would think it's worth a shot. It would be easier than trying to trap and relocate them. And a lot safer, too.
Reply:what kind? are they poisonous? ummm I have no tips about how to get rid of them but I like snakes
Reply:Depends on what kind of snakes. I know this might sound freaky, but the right snakes are good to have around...i.e.,


black racers are harmless to u but can kill larger rattlesnakes. Identify them, keep the good ones and take a rake or hoe to the rest.
Reply:Pet them. Snakes are our friends!
Reply:listen combine the moth ball idea with the sulfur idea! but i think sulfur is a better idea!
Reply:I have heard that you use Sulfur. Spread it around your property line and of course around your foundation. This information was given to me by a exterminator.
