Get rid of these for a snake-free space.
Snakes aren't necessarily interested in your food sources like trash or leftover scraps, but their prey is. And if you're attracting rodents, it's likely that snakes won't be far behind. They are one of their biggest sources of food, after all., mice, or hamsters can attract many species of snakes, particularly larger species such as pythons, boa constrictors, and many kinds of rat snakes," says David.
Garcia notes that if your yard has a lot of rodent odors like droppings or urine, it might also catch the attention of snakes, even if the rodent itself is no longer present.It's not surprising that snake scents will attract more snakes."Snakes can sense pheromones, which are special chemicals released by animals of the same species," says David.
While they're not going to feed on others of their kind, they'll be out and about more. The pheromones can signal many things, including being ready to find a mate, David tellsAccording to , scents must be fresh to enact a feeding response or curiosity. When they lose a scent they'll migrate elsewhere to find either a mate or more food.
