They are sneaky, when it's least expected, keep your guard up! You will win!

So strange , nothing but snakes last year, the year before. This year caught the one small juvenile, saw big fat mom, have not seen or caught a snake since.

I am thrilled, not believing it until the end of the year. Maybe they moved on, got eaten, died, whatever, but right now snake free.

Or they went up against a stubborn Woman who refused to harm them . And who cleaned out the area of snakes , 24 snakes in one year in one area, to me says you came close to getting the mating ball all relocated.

I hope no snakes are reading this thread! They'd be thinking: "Snake free, eh? Sounds like a great place to get away from the crowds. We'll be right over!"

I sure hope so! We are still cooler than normal, but not cold enough for them to not wander around. Time will tell!

We have 5 to 6 foot black snakes, they have made a snack of some of the water snakes...................I have not seen any of them in awhile. Usually it is a chance occurrence.

So the black snakes eat the water snakes and not your fish right?

Snake tastes like chicken

Snake tastes like chicken

I hear that but I wouldn't know for sure as I would never eat it

Never say never I bet there are thousands in Ukraine at the moment that have said similar after they ate something that they never thought they would

Well I do pray I will never have to go through something like that. All we have here is small Garter snakes anyways! I might be able to go cannibalistic on some politician snakes around this country, might not taste so good tho

Snakes will eat other snakes if they catch them. I have never seen the black snakes in the ponds.

Snake tastes like chicken

I ate a piece of a side winder out in Colorado, when we were sand duneing. It got killed by mistake. It does taste like chicken. Not bad.

When it's least expected! Here they come again...............glad you got the little dudes!
Think this is going to be a lifelong thing keeping the traps in there for your peace of mind.
You are a good fishy mom
