There's a large snek hiding in my garage and I want it out before I have to burn my house down.

90% chance it's a western diamondback, so I can't just go willy nilly poking all my stuff with a stick til he pops out.

I put down a snek trap with a big sticky pad inside but he hasn't been caught.

I could just leave the doors open, but I wouldn't know he left, and more wild things will likely take up residence.

Ideas??

Buy a feeder mouse at the pet store for $1.50 and put it live on the sticky pad, game over.
Or you could just snek up on it.

Well, if he IS a rattler, you should *probably* hear him before he bites.... So there is that.

I would set my house on fucking fire.

Seriously. Fuck that.

Offer him a dinner over candle light, soft music, maybe some red wine?

Be careful of the baby ones. Their rattles aren't loud enough to hear, but their venom is sure potent enough to ruin your day.

Go to the fuel station and get some high octane.  Start filling car inside garage while smoking a cigarette and talking on the phone.  Drop phone and spill fuel while smoke falls out of your mouth and run

Chances are its a gopher snake and harmless. I live north of Phoenix and about 80% of the sneks that I get in my yard or garage are this. 15% are western diamond backs and 10% are mambas.

Put down a horsehair rope in the area he is.  That'll trap him there.

This. Hunt over bait. Shotgun full of bird shot won't damage your garage floor much.

Oh, and also be sure to record it.

The mongeese have already been schooled that Rattle sneks are way quicker than a Cobra.  Also don't think they are immune to the Rattle snek venom either.

Go find some antifa. They live to step on snek. Just make sure snek bite them first.

Go out into the wild, catch identical snakes. Milk them for their venom. Inject into horses. Harvest anti-venom. Give yourself increasingly larger doses until you can survive a bite from one. Then go back to your house and burn it down.
