Snake Repellant safe for Chicken Yards

Date sort Score sort
Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow

I have never used this stuff but I have heard it can help repel snakes and its safe for pets when used as directed. https://www.ortho.com/en-us/products/garden/ortho-snake-b-gon-snake-repellent-granules

We have rattlesnakes around here, I use 1/4 inch hardware cloth on the run to keep out baby snakes. Most venomous snakes are active during the hottest of days so birds usually stay inside with fans running.

Good luck and welcome aboard!

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll definitely use the 1/4 cloth around the bottom.

I attached the 3 ft , 1/4 inch cloth to the 1/2 inch cloth all around the entire run. Venomous or not, nobody needs snakes in the coop. I was getting a bunch of baby garders coming in, freaking me out. :lol: I figured if they could come through 1/2 inch, so could baby rattlesnakes.
