SNAKE REMOVAL GUIDE LINES

1. WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR.
2. USE THE CORRECT SNAKE.
3. DO A GOOD INSPECTION.  DRAW A LAYOUT OF PROPERTY.

• NOTE  INFORMATION ABOUT  THE SNAKE.  TYPE OF SNAKE, COLOR, SIZE AND OTHER INFORMATION.
•  NOTE WHERE SNAKE OR SNAKES HAVE BEEN SEEN.  MOST SNAKES ARE TERRITORIAL.
• LOOK FOR “SNAKEY” VEGETATION COVER, FOOD AND WATER.  THE PRIMARY INSTINCTS OF A SNAKE IS TO HIDE AND EAT.  WHEN YOU FIND THESE TWO OR THREE PRIMARY PLACES, YOU HAVE FOUND A GOOD LOCATION FOR THE CAHABA SNAKE TRAP.

TIPS FOR SETTING AND PLACING CAHABA SNAKE TRAP

OUTSIDE

1. FIND THE RIGHT LOCATION. THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT.
2. PLACE THE TRAP CLOSE  TO WALLS, WOOD PILES, HOLES IN THE GROUND AND ANY PLACE SNAKES HAVE BEEN SEEN.
3. CAMOUFLAGE THE TRAP WITH PINE STRAW, LEAVES, OR MATERIAL WHICH IS AROUND THE TRAP.  PUT SOME MATERIAL IN THE OPENING OF THE CAHABA SNAKE TRAP, EVEN A LITTLE MATERIAL ON EACH END OF THE GLUE INSERT.  DAMPEN OR WET MATERIAL ON THE TOP OF CAHABA SNAKE TRAP.
4. LET THE TRAP WORK, I HAVE CAUGHT SNAKES IN A TRAP THAT HAS BEEN IN ONE LOCATION FOR SIX WEEKS, BUT RELOCATE THE TRAP IF YOU NEED TO.
5. AFTER CATCHING A SNAKE, PLACE THE CAHABA SNAKE TRAP IN THE SAME LOCATION.  SNAKES LEAVE A SCENT TRAIL THAT OTHER SNAKES WILL FOLLOW.  YOU MAY CATCH ANOTHER SNAKE SOON AFTER THE FIRST CATCH.

NOTE:

IF YOU HAVE A VERY LARGE SNAKE YOU NEED TO CAPTURE, YOU CAN USE TWO CAHABA SNAKE TRAPS TAPED TOGETHER WITH TWO GLUE INSERTS.  THIS WILL MAKE THE TRAP LARGE ENOUGH TO CATCH MOST ANY SNAKE WE HAVE IN THE UNITED STATE AND MOST ANY  OTHER PLACE.
