Snake Traps

I have a snake job that I am going to look at in the next few days. I have had many snake calls where I just go grab the snake and leave, but this one is a bit different. The home owner sees a snake about every other day out by her air conditioner unit and wants me to either seal up the house or set traps. My question is what is a good snake trap that I could put around the house, and do you use bait for them or not? This is a new one on me and just want to make sure it is done right. Thanks in advance.

Check out the CG snake trap . I never used them but seems like it would work .

Wildlife Control Supplies has several snake traps available- https://www.wildlifecontrolsupplies.com/removal/Snake_Control.html.
I make my own out of corrugated plastic sheeting available at Lowe's (https://www.lowes.com/pd/PLASKOLITE...OiZ_d1w_fxoCKf8QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds) and many other places.

I make them similar to the Cahaba Snake Trap (https://www.wildlifecontrolsupplies.com/animal/WCSCSTS.html). They can be made almost any size to fit any situation. I use small paper back glue boards inside the traps.

Picture of a copperhead cought on glue board.

We use 3" x 4" vinyl down spouting. Cut in to 21 1/2" long. Each end has a 1 3/4" over hang. A 1/2 sheet of GRB goes inside. These can be set along the house and work very well.

Sounds like a good idea Jim . What is GRB ?

I started with a Cahaba from WCS then made my own from old real estate/election signs or even pcs of free scrap downspouts
Anything you can put sticky pads inside will work, so it looks like a tunnel / place to hide

I use cardboard tubes that normally have stretch wrap on it to wrap pallets. Their maybe 4 inches wide, I get them for free so works out I put my glue boards down on each end of them. I cut them roughly 18" I've had many doubles in them a snake on each end or 2 on one end. Only down side is their not the most weather resistant if it rains frays them a bit but will hold up a while.

GRB is a 10" x 18" glue board. Cut in half and the 1" trimmed off the side, it fits in the down spout.

Thanks Jim.

Anyone have experience with these tomahawks?

Why does the snake want to go in that?

Food, as well as blind sets along walls imo

You put hot looking snake chicks in the back!
