So I'ml layin under an Elan, just feelin good that I got the snap ring off =
of the clutch slave cylinder so I can pry it out of the loop on the trans h=
olding it in. As I roll out from under the car, I do a double take on about=
 a two foot snake lookin at me! The snake's head=C2=A0is about 4=E2=80=9D o=
ff the ground, which is what I deemed =E2=80=9Cnot a good thing=E2=80=9D. T=
he sun is in my eyes and I cannot tell what kind of a snake it is (as if I =
could).
I recall that snakes do not hear, but can feel vibrations, I stomp on the g=
round between the snake and I. He chases me into the shop.The snake heads u=
nder the race car and disappears. He's not on the floor. I pop the hood, bu=
t no snake there either.
SOHere's where the help comes in.Besides a mongoose (as they're a bit thin =
on the ground around here, unlike nasty snakes), what can I do the chase th=
e darn thing out of the shop? He's doin a good job of hiding and I just hav=
e visions of opening the shop door to a pile of newborn snakes!Humerous res=
ponses appreciated, BUT I really am lookin for some way the revert to my =
=E2=80=9Csnake free=E2=80=9D shop.
If its not one thing, its anotherNick in Nor Cal

I think there=E2=80=99s probably some =E2=80=9Csnake-b-gone=E2=80=9D =
type product at your friendly local builder supply store.  I saw some =
sort of product at Lowe=E2=80=99s a few days ago.

or

catch a mouse, tie a string on its leg and use it as bait.  When the =
snake is fat and slow with freshly swallowed mouse, you yank the string =
and pull it outside.  Drop it off two miles away (cut off the rest of =
the string if you don=E2=80=99t want it to die).

The only poisonous snake in Norther California is rattlesnakes, and =
you=E2=80=99d know if you spooked one of those=E2=80=94they=E2=80=99d =
rattle. Lots of non-poisonous and therefore harmless alternatives. There =
are snake repellents, but they=E2=80=99re meant to repel snakes in a =
yard by broadcasting it on the grass. Not sure why anyone would want to =
do that, but I guess some people really don=E2=80=99t like snakes.=20

In general they don=E2=80=99t like ultrasonics, so if you get one of =
those ultrasonic mouse chaser things it will probably chase the snake =
out. Or you could just assume they=E2=80=99ll leave when they find =
there=E2=80=99s not much to eat in your garage (unless there=E2=80=99s =
lots of mice, in which case you=E2=80=99d probably like them to stay and =
eliminate that population. Unless you=E2=80=99ve hermetically sealed =
your garage they can get out, and of course they can get in, so having =
seen one is functionally identical to NOT having seen one.=20
