I would like to know more about the fence as we have snakes if all kinds.
I found this site:
http://snakefence.net/how-it-works/
However, it appears it doesn't stop them from trying to enter...
"When snakes enter the openings, The Snake Fence catches them past their necks. The elastic netting slowly expands until the snake is caught. The snakes don’t avoid entering The Snake Fence and once captured can be safely relocated by a wildlife professional."
if the Snake Fence is the way you're going to prevent them, I'd suggest a second fence that would stop pets/guests from getting too close to the 'snake catcher'
Plug all holes... i see them at the bottom of your gate, snakes can't dig... they can however scale any wall or fence I've seen them here in AZ on top a 6 foot to wall , they simply stretch straight up!
Cut back tree limbs, they climb trees and can easily drop into your yard...
Looking at your wall... glue fairly large shards of pots... snakes hate crawling over large pointy things , they like soft round things... all I got... hope it helps...
Love from AZ...
Thanks so much! Yes the gates are a problem, and since they are used daily, going to need to come up with a viable solution. I also have the house of 3 fences, which is another challenge in itself. Certainly will need to beef up the tops of the walls. Again, thank you! ☺
We have 5 poisonous varieties of snakes in our area here in australia....they do dig...they hibernate over winter in the soil...a lot of the old bush people use geraniums around the house as apparently they do not like them....the bio-dynamic people burn their skins with some wood and pepper their borders of their places and the snakes or whatever you have used will not come.
Yikes! Makes me glad all I have to deal with are rattlesnakes. I know how to catch them, but that does no good if I am not home. I have 3 dogs, 16 1/2, 10 and 3. 6 cats that were dumped in my neighborhood a little over a year ago and all are young, but semi feral and used to roaming, a canary (in a cage that goodness!), recently acquired from a friend that passed away and a dragon lizard. I do take the dragon out in the yard but only when I am out with him. The coyotes are becoming more brazen so I am going to install snake fencing, which looks to be burried about 2 feet deep, along with the coyote rollers on the existing fencing. Going to be a busy spring for me! I took 3 of the cats for the rattlesnake vaccine at $45 for each cat. Still need to do the other 3 cats and the 3 dogs.
Very interesting about the geraniums and the burning, will have to do more research and see what the variety of rattlesnakes we have and find out what they do not like. I have found, so far, that they do not like cinnamon and clove oil. Will use that too if necessary.
Thanks for sharing info about Australia! Love learning new things. ☺
You can make the cayote roll bar yourself. 1 3inch pvc pipe. 1 1inch to 1.5 inch pvc pipe. Angle iron. Plastic coated twisted steel wire. You can look up youtube videos on it
Hey, how did it go - did you get the snake fence in?
what was your solution??? Did you buy a fence, use spray it coyote roll?
