SNAKES ONLY HAVE
TWO PRIMARY THOUGHTS:
1. FIND SOMETHING TO EAT.
2. A PLACE TO HIDE
CAHABA SNAKE TRAP
GIVES A SNAKE BOTH OF THESE SECURITIES.
TO THE SNAKE - THE TRAP
RESEMBLES A PLACE TO HIDE, AND A PLACE TO WAIT FOR FOOD. WHEN THE SNAKE ENTERS THE TRAP, IT IS CAUGHT IN THE "CATCH INSERT".
THE CATCH CAN BE HUMANELY RELEASED WITH VEGETABLE OR MINERAL
OIL. USE CAUTION WHEN RELEASING CRITTERS AND ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTION TO GUARD AGAINST BITES OR CRATCHES
Snake control can discourage snakes from staying in an area, by cutting off their food
supply and cover. Mow closely around homes and outbuildings, and store firewood and lumber away from residences. Reduce mulch
layers around shrubs to discourage small animals. Close cracks and crevices in buildings and around pipes and utility connections
with 1/4- inch mesh hard- ware cloth or foam sealent. All doors and windows should have tightly fitting screens.
Seal around all foundation vents pluming lines in craw space, basements and attic vents, some snakes can climb. If you have
signs of snakes in the attic, trim tree limbs and seal attic vents with meash hard-ware cloth. Fill old stump holes with gravel
and cover with dirt. Seal cracks in walls with cement and cover drain pipe with 1/4-inch hardware cloth. Fill chipmunk holes
along cement walks and drive way with gravel and cover with dirt. Use the Cahaba Snake Trap outside in areas where snakes
have been sighted in flowerbeds, along walk ways, walls, patios utility building and any other place you may need it.
Snake Control for small areas where children might play can be protected from all poisonous and most harmless
snakes with a snake- proof fence. However, the cost of the fence may make it impractical to protect a whole yard. The fence
is made of 1/4- inch mesh wire screening built up 30 inches and buried 6 inches underground. It should slant outward
at a 30 degree angle from bottom to top. The supporting stakes must be inside the fence and any gates must fit tightly. Tall
vegetation just outside the fence should be removed.
Repellents
such as sulfur or mothballs may help, however have proven generally ineffective at keeping snakes away from residences. Snakes
can be easily moved. Small snakes may be swept into a box or bag and removed. A large snake can usually be carried outside,
suspended over a stick or garden rake.
If a snake enters a residence,
it may be difficult to find. You can use the Cahaba Snake trap inside, place along walls or area where the snake may be. Since
snakes seem to like moisture, they can be coaxed to one area by placing wads of damp cloth on top of the Cahaba Snake trap,
covered with dry ones at different places along a wall. The piles must be large enough to allow a snake to crawl under them
into the Cahaba Snake Trap. Check the Cahaba Snake Trap and piles of cloth each day and remove the snakes found there. Lethal
Measures
Use a long- handled shovel or hoe to kill a snake by
severing the head from the body. Caution: Do not handle the head of a poisonous snake alive or dead. Recently killed snakes
may bite by reflex action. Poisonous snakes should be killed only if their presence endangers humans or petsHumane Release:
Critters can be humanely release from Cahaba Snake Trap by use of mineral or vegetable oil. Use caution when
releasing snakes and always wear protective guard against bites.
