Snake Removal Service

[darbs]

I was thinking of unusual business opportunities that I could set up for myself to help me earn a living while in Thailand. One idea I came up with was to set myself up as a snake removal expert. I would be on call to help dispose of unwanted snakes from peoples homes and properties and release them safely in remote areas so as to reduce the chance of another encounter. Can anyone tell me if there is any call for such a service, would it be at all popular or is there already services such as this available?

I've known of them. Most villages tend to have at least one guy knocking about the place who can take on the job if called for.

I guess the bottom line is that this is a job which can be done by a Thai which would rule out a Westerner being able to do the job.

If anyone knows of a good one out in the Suphanburi area, please let me know. Got tons of 'em around...

Good idea Darbs but I don't think most Thais could afford Farang rates of pay.

Are you any good at catching Qld Cane Toads, there are some jobs going up in Darwin.

The buggers are on the outskirts and are ready to invade Darwin.....!

Get some Mongooses (mongeese??) from Chatuchak. They're legal to buy and effective.

I'm a snake lover so I'll put a visit to Suphanburi on the list for next time.

There are Thais already doing it in Bangkok. In the Lardprao area alone they catch 10 a day!!! They have a big problem during the rainy season with snakes. They then usually sell them to the Lao/Isarn labourers who eat them. I don't think they charge for their services, so forget it as a way of making money.

Back to the drawing board

They don't charge for the service because they sell the snake for about 100 baht
