Effective Methods That Will Scare the Springfield Snakes Away
Springfield snakes are very beneficial to the ecosystem. Therefore, we recommend only the humane method when getting rid of them. Try to employ these simple hazing tactics that are meant to scare them.

Using Vibrations
Once you found the snakes in your garden, and you are afraid that there are more of them that are lurking in the obscure part of the house, you can use the tiller or lawn mower and run it all over your yard. Avoid using it directly on the denning area of the snake since you don’t want to harm them. These machines will produce a vibration that should only be enough to warn or scare the creatures away. In case you have a clear visibility of the snake. Simply stomping your feet can create vibration that will encourage them to leave. Remember that this method may not keep the snakes off your property permanently.

Using Repellent
Repellent will not just allow you to eliminate the snakes in your yard but also the things that are attracting them such as the rodents and the insects. By doing this, you can discourage the snakes from visiting your house. We abhor the use of toxic solutions and chemical repellents that are sold in the market. You can create your own repellent using organic and natural ingredients found in the house. For instance, some essential oils such as clove oil and cinnamon oil may cause them some discomfort. Nonetheless, you will still have to introduce a lasting solution for snake invasion since repellent will not deliver permanent result.

Predators
There are some animals that are considered the natural enemy of the snake. Some species of birds such as chicken, ducks, geese, hawks, and owls will actively hunt for snake. In some instances, it has been reported that pig will also be ready to defend their territory against snakes. In case you have the more traditional type of pet such as cat and dogs, there are breeds of domestic animals that will hunt snakes. Spreading their fur and urine all over the premises may be effective in scaring the snakes.

Now that you are aware about the common methods that will scare the snake, you should understand that the snake will return if you do not have a preventive system. Surrounding your place with fence or nets designed for the snake will give you a strong defense against them. You should also seal the crevices, gaps, and cracks in your house and properly maintain the condition of your garden.
