Thread: Rattlesnakes! What to do?

A .50 cal or foo gas would do the trick.

Personally, I'd turn it into a razor. This one shaves real nice and the rattlesnake isn't going to bother anyone anymore.

If you live a redneck enough area, shoot the snake, skin it, eat it, and then get rid of the rodents that attracted it so another one won't move in to takes it's place. Then seal off the at area.

If you live in a area where it is feloney to shoot it then call a professional to catch it. At this point depending on where you live you have a couple of options. 1 the professional kills it, skins it, helps you cook and eat it. 2. the professional takes the snake away and kills it, 3 th perfessional takes it far away and lets it go.

Either way recomend getting rid of the rodents and such that attracted the scnack in the first place, then seal of the area so no more would come and replac the other snake
remeber that these snackes often keep other things out and additional measures might by required .

Just keep poking them with a stick. They'll love it.

love that razor, my friend. A set of scales for a straight like that would be ON TIME

Here's an update and a cross-post from what I just said on B&B:

WOOHOO! MOAR RATTLERZ!!!1134

Had another one in the backyard today. Just a little fella, probably three feet long or so. I was able to coax him into a big empty garbage can and escorted him to an area a few miles away from people. I never kill them if I can help it.

To those that asked before, yes, I do have extensive experience handling snakes. Not exactly sure how to go about getting rid of one two feet beneath where I sleep every night, though, especially considering the crawlspace under the house has about three feet of clearance

I may give the sulfur solution a shot. I'm up for trying anything that's non-lethal.

I wish like anything I had a straight scaled with rattlesnake. Or even better, a coral snakeskin set of scales. Those would be over the top!
