So I just I love summer because it means getting to spend lots of time outdoors, especially in my backyard. However, I live in the South and apparently, the snakes feel the same way not only about enjoying summer, but about spending it in my yard. Sorry, but I would prefer not to share my yard with those critters and they just terrify me, even the nonpoisonous garden variety of snakes. Last summer, a huge King snake curled up in one of my flower pots and my grandson was out in the yard right next to it when he discovered him. I ran inside and would not dare go back out until my husband came home from work to get rid of him. He assured me that this snake was a “good snake” that ate other snakes, but I am sorry, just “no.” This was my inspiration to fin a do it yourself way to trap snakes. Watch the video to learn how to make a homemade trap for snakes.
