How to Repel Snakes From a Garden
- 1). Mow your grass surrounding the garden often. Don't let it become overgrown.
- 2). Weed the garden and prune lower branches of shrubs and trees so they are off the ground. Remove excessive mulch so it is 2 inches deep or less. Rake the garden often and keep it clean.
- 3). Keep wood piles and haystacks away from the garden. Store them on a raised platform or unit so they are off the ground by at least 12 inches.
- 4). Remove junk and rock piles. Clean up trash and loose boards that may be lying around.
- 5). Install a fence that is at least 36 inches tall and 6 inches deep into the ground. Slant it at a 30 degree angle facing outward. Also, the openings on the fence must be 1/4 inch or less.
- 6). Clean up nearby animal feed that may be attracting rodents. Also, keep your lids of your trash cans sealed.
