You always want to get out of the city, into nature, take a break from the bustle of the city and high-rise buildings. Of course, the rest should be safe, without any consequences. However, it is worth remembering that even on the territory of a cozy area, a person may be in danger in the form of snakes. These reptiles like to make their way to suburban areas, especially those that are located next to a forest or a medium-sized body of water such as a lake or river. There may be several reasons for this. Snakes love to feast on berries, mostly strawberries, as well as heaps of hay and other dark corners of the garden.
So that the rest does not end with a snake bite, you need to take care of safety in advance.
First, you need to remove all debris from the site and mow tall grass. Snakes lay their eggs in places where they are comfortable, warm and calm. If you change their habitual habitat conditions, then the animals will go in search of a new habitat.
Secondly, you can get hedgehogs on the site. They will drive the reptiles away effectively and practically at no cost to you. In order to lure animals, simply leave a bowl of fresh milk near the site. Hedgehogs are also very fond of chicken, pieces of which can also be left close to milk.
Thirdly, to get rid of snakes, you can use inhumane methods, namely poisons. However, you need to understand that not every snake will eat chemical bait. Snakes are considered to be very cautious and cold-blooded creatures that can be wary of the provided treat. In addition, chemicals are dangerous not only for pests, but also for pets.
Fourthly, noise for snakes is the first sign of danger, and a constantly ongoing and strong sound will make it disappear from the territory. Snake repellers are designed in such a way that they spread sound waves over the surface of the earth. They are very easy to use: just insert 4 batteries into it and place it in the ground at a 30 degree angle. The vibration will spread along the ground and thereby scare away the snakes. The devices are very economical, one set of batteries can last for 2 seasons. The device does not use chemicals and poisons in its work, which means it will be completely safe for pets, humans and crops.
If you meet a snake on your way, do not stand with your back to it, do not stomp your feet, do not make sudden movements and do not wave your arms - this can make it angry. In fact, snakes are quite peaceful and shy creatures. They only bite if they feel threatened. Just calmly let the animal go, then it will not touch you.
hedgehogs. These cute spiky creatures are snakes' natural enemies and can quickly rid your yard of them. Interestingly, especially aggressive hedgehogs become after taking alcohol. So a small saucer of beer will raise the morale of snake fighters.
Dogs of a special breed, the Airedale Terrier, help to fight creeping enemies. These aggressive animals catch and choke both snakes and vipers, so the problem can be solved soon. However, take precautions to prevent your dog from biting your neighbors, such as wearing a muzzle. By the way, an ordinary cat can also start a war with snakes. She can strangle the pest and bring it to the owners as a trophy.
Destroy places suitable for snake nests - dense thickets of grass, heaps of garbage heaps or deadwood, abandoned tops and piles of leaves. Also favorite places for snakes: compost pits, stumps, snags, dung heaps, a pile of garden tools. Wear thick gloves and rubber boots to avoid biting while cleaning up the area.
Fight small rodents: moles, mice, rats. This is the food of snakes, and if the mouse population is reduced, then the snakes themselves will leave the site from lack of food.
Snakes really dislike the swing of burnt rubber and scorched areas in general. Before the start of the summer season, burn in the country car tire and protect yourself from reptiles. At the same time, observe fire safety measures.
If you are sure that there are few snakes, you can try to hunt them. Lure them with milk and try to destroy them by any means at hand, observing safety measures. It may be inhumane, but we are talking about the health of you and your children.
Place posts around the perimeter of the site, and hang a very rustling film or foil on them - the sound will scare away the snakes and they will prefer a quieter neighboring area than staying in a suspiciously noisy place.
To make snakes uncomfortable on your site, remove all grass and clear the area. snakes like to hide in the grass, and if it is not there, the natural habitat will be disturbed, and they will go looking for a better life in other places where both the grass is tall and last year's foliage has not been removed.
note
The head is already. The shelters of snakes are voids under the roots of trees, heaps of stones, rodent burrows, haystacks, gaps between the logs of bridges, dams and other shelters. Sometimes snakes settle in basements, under houses, in heaps of manure or garbage, and here they make nests. In fallen leaves and loose soil, snakes can make their own moves.
Most often in the gardens we have to meet such snakes as snakes, snakes (relatives of snakes), copperheads and vipers. There is such a hunting dog breed - Jagd Terrier. So, these cute dogs are not bad at exterminating (choking) snakes, and vipers and snakes at the same time, it’s checked! They can attack humans though, so be sure to muzzle your shaggy pet so it doesn't bite your garden neighbors.
Imagine, you come to the dacha with children, walk along the path between flower beds or beds, and right in front of you a fat viper crawls on the ground. How will you feel after this? Will you let the children frolic on the green grass? Rest is definitely spoiled, but Poisonous snakes in the area is not uncommon.
Sometimes people get confused ordinary snakes with poisonous snakes. There are not many poisonous snakes in Russia. Mostly you can find an ordinary viper, steppe viper, Caucasian viper and Pallas muzzle. They have characteristic colors, if you look closely, they are not difficult to distinguish from snakes that are not poisonous.
Contrary to popular belief that venomous snakes are very aggressive, it must be said that they are more afraid of a person than he is of them. Snakes don't attack people if you accidentally get in their way, they can only bite in self-defense. For example, if a person grabs a snake with his hands or steps on negligence.
How to get rid of snakes and how to avoid trouble (bites, of course, in the first place) in the fight against snakes?
Usually snakes tend to hide from the eyes, they live in tall grass or under tree branches, in stumps, in dunghills. If the site is not equipped and is in disrepair, then it is necessary to restore order on it. Mow the grass, remove debris, debris, heaps of leaves, etc. Ask your neighbors to do the same.
For a talisman, an infusion of black snake root is used. Make a cool infusion. When taking a bath, pour it into the water. Your leather will absorb the smell and repel snakes. Of course, this is more magic - it's up to you to believe it or not.
To treat the wound after a bite, you can use different plants, For example:
Used as a decoction for lotions on the bite. 4 tablespoons of crushed roots are poured into 1 liter of water, brought to a boil, boiled for 15 minutes, insisted in a sealed container for 12 hours, filtered.
Apply in the form of infusion. 2 tablespoons of flowers are poured with 2 cups of boiling water, insisted in a warm place or in a thermos for 4 hours, filtered. Drink the infusion warm, 1-1/2 cups 3-4 times a day.
Works the same way as raspberries. Preparation: 3 tablespoons of a string pour 0.5 liters of boiling water; insist in a warm place or in a thermos for 12 hours, filter. Drink 1-1/2 cups 3 times a day before meals. Simultaneously crushed fresh leaves strings are applied to the bite site.
It works in the sound range at frequencies of 350-450 Hz and repels snakes in an area of up to 300 sq m using vibration. By the way, if a mole repeller works on the site, then the snakes will probably leave after all the moles and mice disappear from it, because they will have nothing to eat.
Other things that are unpleasant for snakes are saltpeter and herbicides, having treated the perimeter of the site with them, you can be sure that the snakes will not crawl, but first you should take them out. In neighboring areas, if they are abandoned, it is worth scattering rags soaked in the same liquids.
Some cats and dogs are not averse to catching snakes, and hedgehogs are also not indifferent to snakes. You can get yourself a couple of hedgehogs in the country, but it is not a fact that they will not run away.
As a result, we can say that the fight against snakes in the country, garden plot etc. also effective with simple means, but it is the repellers that drive away the snakes when you sleep.

Tips Zmeelova -
To make sure that the snake has already left, or vice versa, lives in the house -
It is necessary to scatter a path of plain flour near each door frame, in a thin layer. If the snake is still there, then you will definitely see the characteristic flour tracks that the snake will leave when crossing the flour "path". If those do not appear in ten days (or two weeks), then the snake has long left the house
The best way (but not humane) to catch a snake in a dwelling is to unwind and spread the adhesive tape with a sticky layer up. The snake will inevitably plunge into it and begin to rage - thereby wrapping the entire tape around itself (the entire unfolded piece). All this happens with noise and crunch.
snake in the house
Pour any dissolved garden herbicide into the gaps between the boards - the snake will leave, in English.
“I meet my snake, I immediately run to the kitchen to brew coffee. At the same time I shout to her: Make yourself comfortable, dear mother-in-law! ..
This is how I've been surviving for twenty years."
Snake in the garden
You can process the boundaries of the site with simple ammophos, sodium or potassium nitrate, etc. The herbicide may give the best effect, but the smell from it is nasty, and lasts quite a long time. In the spring, it is necessary to carry out such processing several times with an interval of two weeks.
Weeds will begin to grow vigorously.
Sheathe the perimeter of the site in a continuous strip. And from the side of the forest, if it does not harm anyone else, you can still duplicate it with a wide train. Spray carefully to cultivated plants not hit; from a height of thirty centimeters. This will scare the snakes from crawling.
It does not happen year after year, but usually the main activity of snakes lasts from April to October, so it may be necessary to repeat the procedure in the second half of the summer, especially in rainy summer. In the opposite situation, hot dry summers, when the food supply of snakes (rodents and insects) move to human habitation, where there is always watering, additional processing will also be required.
Scare away from the camp -
Snakes do not tolerate agricultural chemical fertilizers. If along the perimeter of the camp scatter saltpeter or amophoska, etc., in the form of a "path". - snakes do not crawl over this "barrier". You can also do it differently. You will need to take one or two ampoules of any garden herbicide with you. Already in the parking lot, dissolve them in water, in PET bottles, and also spray them with a line along the perimeter (to do this, make several holes in the lids). The effect is guaranteed. Only the amber of herbicides is not the most pleasant, I myself would not poison the clean forest air with them. For three days, no phytoncides will kill the persistent smell of chemistry. Rest will be ruined. This is more relevant for summer cottages or estates in the forest.
Prevention of unwanted meetings -
Any killed or crushed snake wriggles in agony, all its muscles spasm violently. At the same time (especially in females), substances containing invocative pheromones are released from the anal. If in a simple way - a killed snake involuntarily emits the smell of readiness for mating. And since snakes have the most perfect sniffing apparatus, neighboring individuals will instinctively climb "to the wedding" - exactly, right to the source of this smell. Therefore, it is advisable to take the snake away from housing and, if possible, dig in (and even better avoid this procedure and disperse peacefully).
How to disperse in peace -
Snakes are often dangerous, there is no doubt about it. But it is quite possible to reduce this danger to almost zero with your right behavior on a hike or a picnic.
As a rule, a snake bites in defense, and a person gets into such a situation through indiscretion. That is why, according to statistics, the number of bitten among local population disproportionately less than among travelers and tourists.
You have to be careful in the forest, and in the places where snakes may live (and in the steppe and in the mountains, respectively, too). Such places are usually bushes, forest edges, glades, boulders, tall dry grass, banks of forest streams, swamps, lakes. It is necessary to be wary of various crevices, holes and not climb into them with your hands. When picking mushrooms, it is useful to have a stick with you, with which you “feel” the grass under the trees and shrubs. Walking along the path, especially on a warm, quiet day, look under your feet so as not to inadvertently step on a snake basking in the sun. They like to rest on the paths after the rain, when everything around is damp. "They love to bask in the sun." You also need to carefully look under your feet when walking in places overgrown with tall grass or shrubs. Snakes attack mainly a moving object.
If you suddenly notice a snake crawling, freeze, give it the opportunity to leave. If the snake is in a menacing posture, back away slowly. Avoid sudden movements that frighten the snake! You can not, defending yourself, put your hands forward, turn your back to the snake. If you have a stick, hold it in front of you towards the snake. Do not run away from the snake you meet - you can step on another unnoticed. Remain calm in decisions, actions, gestures. Remember, a snake that you do not see is dangerous, a snake that is found is not a threat. Seeing a snake, it is enough just not to touch it and move away.
In the case of the viper, tight sneakers and loose jeans are enough to protect against teeth, not to mention boots. In addition, before going to bed, in nature, it is necessary to carefully inspect the tent and sleeping bags, and in the morning inspect and shake out clothes and shoes. And you just have to be careful.
main way protection for common viper it is secrecy. Often people coexist with snakes and are unaware of their existence.
But if, due to your inattention, you stepped on or sat on a snake, or foolishly decided to catch and take the snake in your hands, it will defend itself in a different way - bite. They defend themselves by attack and if for some reason they cannot crawl away, or they are driven into a corner or not warmed up enough to quickly retreat or have recently dined.
Often the consequences of improper treatment of a bite are more dangerous than the bite itself.
Remember that when destroying snakes in natural environment their habitats, you thereby cause irreparable harm to NATURE itself, upsetting the balance between certain types. In particular, you create the conditions for mass reproduction rodents, including mice.
On the outskirts of the city and in suburban areas, the invasion of snakes can be a real disaster. Most often, you can meet them for the first time in early spring when these reptiles, waking up from hibernation, are going to lay eggs and are looking for a suitable place for the nest. Let's find out how to permanently get rid of snakes in your summer cottage, because they pose a serious threat to human life.
In our latitudes, on personal plots, you can most often find four varieties of creeping reptiles - copperfish, snakes, and vipers. Only the latter causes damage to the central nervous system and even death in a person. The other three species are fairly harmless, but can also bite. Although their saliva does not contain poison, an infection can get through the wound, which means that it is also necessary to deal with such uninvited guests.
Fighting snakes on suburban area can be both aggressive and gentle. The latter option is suitable for wildlife lovers who do not want to exterminate its representatives, but only to drive them away from their garden, getting rid of the unpleasant neighborhood.
An effective means of dealing with snakes in a summer cottage is, first of all, noise. Yes, yes, it is the violation of silence that is very unpleasant for creeping reptiles. In places where all kinds of rattles are located, snakes cannot calmly raise offspring, and leave in search of quieter places.
An excellent alternative to rattles will be a lawn mower, which in this case has a double action - it mows the grass, thereby ennobling the site and makes a loud noise, which scares the snakes. It is noticed that they like to live in dense thickets, which means that if you regularly carry out sanitary work to exterminate the grass, then the snakes will go looking for a more comfortable corner for themselves.
If you have not yet decided how to expel snakes from your summer cottage, you can try to do this with the help of other living creatures, namely hedgehogs, cats and dogs. Cats love to hunt for everything that crawls in the grass, but at the same time they do not suffer from snake bites, and this natural quality can be actively used to fight.
For dog lovers, we can recommend the Jagd Terrier breed, which simply does not like snakes and will willingly fight them. But you should know that you will have to carefully monitor his upbringing, since this breed is very aggressive towards strangers.
If you lure hedgehogs to the site with a saucer of milk, they will also come to the rescue in the fight against snakes, but it should be remembered that snakes are not averse to tasting milk. There is also a long-standing way to set hedgehogs on their enemies, it is called the “Hungarian method” or “drunken hedgehog”. Wine or beer is poured into a bowl instead of milk, and the hedgehog, emboldened by the strong drink, goes in search of the snake and its nest.
But the recommended "scented" methods, such as laying out rags soaked in grease or planting garlic in in large numbers most of the time don't work. Perhaps modern snakes have simply gotten used to all kinds of pollution and impurities in the air and no longer pay attention to them.
For those who do not want to reinvent the wheel and wait a long time for results from folk methods, we can recommend that you immediately turn to the help of toxic toxic substances. They are sold at any gardening store. But, you should know that the use of saltpeter, herbicides and other chemicals in the garden, which is actively used to spray garden plants and fertilize the earth, will also play into the hands of snakes, so you don’t have to buy any special tools.
The problem of snakes has always been relevant for people, especially for those who live in rural areas. If there is a possibility of snakes in the house, then people start to be afraid to leave their rooms and start to be afraid to go to bed. If you fit the description, don't you think it's time to do something?

Even though we don't live in exotic country, and dachas do not represent tropical jungle, stuffed with pythons and boas, for many summer cottages, the invasion of snakes becomes a truly huge problem. If earlier they appeared only in places close to forests and swamps, then in connection with logging and drainage of swamps, snakes are forced to adapt and look for new habitats. In addition, during the export of wood, snakes end up in regions that are completely atypical for them and settle down where a person does not expect them at all. Summer cottages are the most suitable for snake habitat - warm, damp, compost heaps, garbage pits, gardens with tree rhizomes, sheds with inventory, all these places are an ideal shelter and nest.
Important! Most snakes are nocturnal animals, so most often you can encounter them in the evening or early in the morning. It is easy to detect the presence of snakes by the remnants of skin shed during molting, the sharp disappearance of rodents.
From the beginning of summer to the middle of summer, snakes become especially aggressive and dangerous, as this is the time mating games, reproduction, breeding.
Attention! To succeed in the fight against snakes, you need to know the characteristics of their behavior, which species are poisonous and pose the greatest danger. The fact that snakes rarely attack first and do not specifically seek to meet a person does not mean that they cannot be stumbled upon by chance, for example, collecting compost or weeding beds.

There are several ways to get rid of snakes.
