Snakes in the house

Question:
I have found 3 snakes in my house during the past two weeks, I have never had a problem before and I had to get my neighbor to put them outside they were in the basement but now I cannot sleep at night for fear of them coming into my bedroom or living area.

Answer:
It's actually quite common for snakes to come inside. They are not going to do you any harm and will most likely wriggle away as soon as they notice you. Small comfort. So what can you do?

Answer:
We use a combination of strobe lights and repellants to drive them out and stop them coming back.
Snakes rely on their strong sense of smell so anything with a pungent aroma will help stop them from coming near you.
Mothballs, cinnamon, garlic etc.
Remember they like mice as a food source so it's a good idea to check you don't have mice also.

If all this freaks you out call a company that does Environmentally Friendly Pest Controls in your area.
