Moth Balls

So we haven't gotten a goat...yet. Joe's remedy for the snake problem was to put out two boxes of mothballs all around and under the house. I must say, it is not a pleasant smell. Any other (non smelly) tips for keeping the snakes away?

Can't you put sulfur out? I think that is what it is. Check with the feed and seed store. As for the goat, we found a chicken snake in our goat pin one time.

Yep, years ago I heard of a snake being found in a goat shed before.
Just keep a sharp eye out for those boys when they are out.

Denise-
You know we live in the country, too! We have never seen a snake, and I believe the reason is because we have Slick, the cat. I have heard that cats will keep snakes away... invest in quite a few cats! LOL
