I found a snake living in my compost bin. HELP!

Compost bins are a buffet for snakes. Look into snake fencing if you can completely enclose your yard. See if these help.

What kind of snake is it..... gopher and king snakes eliminate mice, rats, and gophers... if it is a rattler... call animal control and have them remove it (we shoot ours... but we live out in the middle of the desert)

FYI... king snakes will actually EAT rattle snakes... and some bull snakes will too.

Google can help you identify what kind of snake it is..

If you can't reason with the snake, then I would sell my house and move far away. I hate snakes lol!

If he is not a poisonous one, be glad he is there because he will keep the rats away from your house.
