It should be noted at this point that it is common knowledge that snakes love the sanctury of a cool ceramic place preferably with a supply of water

Oracle, I've heard that snakes are attracted to electromagnetic energy waves emanating from computer equipment. If it settles in that vicinity will that be a problem for you? :lol:

He could possibly be right come to think of it

But going back a VERY long way to My Biologia lessons at school If I remember correctly its only extremely venomous types of snakes that dislike water ...Hope that is of some help

Snakes don't like water, hose the place down ! other that that get your wellies on, trousers and jacket and use a brush.

Oracle, you can practice ridding your environment of snakes at this website. This could save the situation................

Have you tried singing to the snake , but for that you will need to be sitting on a donkey , a Siergas in particular , and sing your heart out , no doubt the entire community will come to watch and before you know it the snake is in jar !!

Thank gawd for the Germans ..... :D

Male cousins went off in car leaving behind wives and mums. So I went over for advice. Head of family mum said "You have to kill it since you have a child" :shock: . Cousin said "She's too English! :roll: Leave a saucer of milk and shut all the other doors!" But cousin's German wife said "Come on, ve can getit oot!" 8)

So to the sounds of Son playing Guitar Heroes III ( "Devil went down to Georgia" is still ringing in my ears :shock: ) .... we battled with brooms and moving furniture. After too many close encounters where I ended up eye-ball to eye-ball with it whilst peering under bed thus gaining much German kudos (not easy to impress them :D ) ... German cousin-in-law grabbed it with the BBQ tongs and marched out into the garden, just in time for it to fall into the mint border ....

Have a photo of it so may try and up-load later .....

Need a dip in the sea .... to calm nerves!

Thanks for being there folks.

Talisker sarcasm duly noted :wink:
