I have a good friend and neighbor who’s in the critter removal business here in E TN. When he gets a non-poisonous snake he takes it home and drops it off on his property. I’ve asked him to drop any extras off on my property.
Sounds like a plan to me. Earlier posts from today mention varmints like to munch on car wiring that have soy based auto wiring insulation.
When I started collecting rat and other snakes for the gardens years ago, I noticed a screeching halt to water moccasins and rattlers, in fact I have a theory now that their venom is a delicacy for their predators.
