Lantern Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Why not just make yourself a snake catcher, Use about 2 meters of 25mm electrical conduit or water pipe Get about 5 meters of that plastic strapping they use to strap stuff to paletts. Thread through the conduit so you have a loop on one end and the other two ends in your hand. Put loop over snakes head and pull gently (dont want to take his head off) Then re-locate him.

Ping Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 He's gone - must have slithered down a drain hole, which is probably where he came in. That's my excitement for the day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good way to get bitten, better to leave them alone and they will go away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crusader79 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Get a dog. I'm not in Phuket, by my Akita gets a couple a year. Unfortunately sometimes the snake wins, once lost a beloved bulldog that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
