Oh my god I don't think we will have a fish pond! Though I have no actual fear of snakes, I don't want them in the house, or for that matter anywhere near me

Never in all the years seen any snakes near or swimming in my fish ponds and there are little fish called mossy fish that are voracious when it comes to eating mossy's! You can have the luxury of a swimming pool and many ponds. go for it!

...thats why i've "concrefied" everything around my house and made a perimeter wall...

I bravely severed the head off a silvery coloured snake that slithered into my garden. I bashed it with a shovel. Have to say I was screaming as I hit it. Only reason I killed it is I have 2 dogs and they would have stupidly gone over to it and nudged it...... It was a horrible thing to do but I believe I had no option!

We have a pool and apart from swifts and swallows diving into it during the day we have bats at night that come down and drink. We also have lizards, dragon flys and the now famous cypriot mouse!!!

Thank you for you reply, I like the idea of the mossy fish eating the mossies
You say fish ponds..how many do you have? What fish do you keep in them? Did you buy them in Cyprus? We like Koi, can these be bought In Cyprus do you know, and are they more expensive than the UK...approx?
Sorry for asking more questions

Oh my god, I understand your dilemma, I also have a stupid dog that would have wanted to go and find out what it was . I think I would have had to call for someone (anyone )though as I don't think I would have been able to kill it myself....I know...I need to toughen up

We will be having a perimeter wall, but think we will be putting conifers around also...just for that added protection!
