Title: Best way I've found yet to deal with snake problems!!

I already had two of these very common minnow traps at home but I stumbled on to one at walmart that was cheap and thought "I bet that would work!" I set it along the wall inside of my coop and 2 days later had a rat snake in it, A couple days later a copperhead and then another, so I dug around till I found the two old traps and set them inside also and today I had two more copperheads, I knew I had snakes but didn't know it was this bad and am really loving the effectiveness of the Minnow/Snake traps, I figured if anyone else hadn't already thought this one up I'd share it and maybe it can help others save a few birds and eggs, Happy hunting and thanks for looking, Bill


Sorry, I could not transfer the photo's from the source to here. If some one with more techy abilities than I can do it, it would be greatly appreciated. I thought this was real interesting, especially for those of us that live out in the boonies where snakes are common. Since the article deals with getting rid of a pest/varmit, I started to put it in the politics/politicians, LOL. I am going to dig out the trap I have somewhere in the shop bldg and try this.

" $10 at cabela's. "

That is a good price.

I guess those vinyl ones would hold up good enough.
