So, I know nothing about snake rescue, or any non lethal snake handling tools, but several times a year need to get the rat snake or copper head out of the chicken coop or feed room- tell me, grabbers, tongs, whatcacallems? best bang for money? one size fits all? I have hoe, shovel and 22, but, She thinks we can re-home these slithering pests.

42 for me. Longer is for those skeered of snakes and to cumbersome to use in tight quarters. The trick is to grab the front third. If you do that none of our snakes are long enough to come up the tongs at you. x2...and I use a snake hook at times to pull them outa places if i'll be able to just grab them.....wearing heavy welding gloves, that they can bite onto, making grabbing them behind the head easy peasy, IF its non-venomous.

I have used a paint roller wire on a golf club stick for years the I was still breeding the little buggers. No Idea where that thing ended up and I'll probably make another one for just in case when we move to TN.
