What kind is it? Im not a big fan of snakes but I respect them and as long as they arent poisonous Ill let them slither along and do their thing.
Don't fret. By the time you need to grab off the pile, he will have done his job and moved on. Most likely thinning the mouse herd considerably before they try moving in with you. Judging from his apparent thickness, he's doing a fine job.
I leave snakes alone these days. But they make me ill at the sight of them. I can look at a rodent without the reaction I get from seeing a snake.
Hmm, tapered and pointed do not seem like mutually exclusive categories. How do you tell the difference?
Get a jack Russell or a cat. When I had a cat that went outside, he left chips on the front step fairly often. He also got reds but no grays. I can't have an outside cat now. For some odd reason we have a population explosion of predatory animals. I won't risk loosing another pet for a wild animals dinner.
My attack cat took care of my flying squirrel issues in the attic. The vet bills are cheaper than an exterminator.
I'd lend you Billy Bob, Minnie, and Samson for a few days but having your own hunters is much more rewarding
We'd love to have cats but my wife is allergic to them. She can barely get through a dinner in a house that a cat lives in. I can't legally shoot them, even with a BB gun. With 1/3 of an acre it is rather difficult to get away with. Rat traps and peanut butter work, but other chipmunks move in just as fast.
