My brother used to own a place with the snakiest pond I've ever seen. Every time you went down there to fish, it was a good idea to take a stick and beat the brush to scare off the snakes.

I know he used a shotgun sometimes, so he killed a pile of snakes around that pond.

CrappiePappy, that is my choice. I can tell you they work excellent on snakes and my number one yard enemy, Moles! :ThumbsUp
