So what is the big stick for ya big bully
.
it's actually a PVC pipe with a rope loop in it. We use it to catch the snake, then we stick it in an esky.
Then we drive it up the road to the state forest and let it go there. :thumb

I was doing a site inspection on Tuesday and had a close encounter with a red belly black snake.
I was remarkably calm ....... NOT!!

we get on average 10 snakes a year around the house, so we're used to it.
either we catch and relocate them, or the dog's find them first and play tug-o-war with them. :puke

https://www.facebook.com/FlatFouryeah, some are a little aggressive. if they stand up with their neck in an S-bend shape you know they will be trouble.
The carpet snakes are fine. They are a very calm snake.
My dog is so fast and efficient. She's made it to 11 with no bites yet. But I prefer to save the snake if possible.

its a stupid place to have a nap!! did u start your bike and it slithered out or something?
id be a bit freaked out :duh
my next door neighbours cat killed a green tree snake last week and left it decapitated just next to my washing basket, was not impressed. pretty much why i dont like cats.
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.
how did you find it?
oh, i think i'll just have a look to see if anything is asleep between my front tyre and fender..no, oh wait..just another snake lol...

When I lived in Darwin we had the same sort of problems, I still remeber my ridgeback bringing a 4ft carpet snake in the house. The wife went off her head, luckily the Ridgy and my Pitbull played tug of war prior to bringing it in the house.
I still remember my wife screamin get that F#*king thing out of here.lol.
.....nice bike.....
that carpet snake is a relatively small one.
Luckily my dog found it and started barking at the bike before I found it by accident.

whaaat!? you supposed to poke it with a stick and piss it off and then pick it up with your bare hands and take it for a walk to somewhere else. At least that's what my Dad does...:duh
carpet snakes are tame, the biggest one I've seen was in Cornubia/Loganholme and it rivaled an anaconda. I'm serious it would've nearly been the thickness of my leg, just kept going and going and going-really really long. Why do we live here in Oz, when we have like 9/10 of the worlds most deadly snakes and the animal able to kill humans the fastest in 3-4min (Box jellyfish)???? why?

Esky's are for Beer Wes, not snakes.:beer
what if you wanted to get a beer out and the snake was in there? Although it would stop people from flogging it.

I say go the spade ....... haven't you guys seen what the big snake tries to do to Harry Potter ??????????
🤘
What a good idea with the pipe and rope... My parents had a resident 2m python which used to squeeze between the tin roof and the frame of the verandah. It was great, kept the mice and rats away too i would say. Then it left a skin and took off.. apparently they are terratorial but it didn;t come back this year...
they are good to have around (carpet snakes), but it had to be relocated for it's own safety. They are no match for a dog.

look what i found under my front guard.
lucky it ponged otherwise i might have tried to ride away.
:P:P:P
ps. snakes are out over here to. last weekend saw two big dugites and one tiger catching some rays on the sand track whilst testing the bugeye. its better meeting them on 4 wheels than when hooking round a sandy corner with a leg out on the dirtbike...

You shouldn't hit them with a shovel - your likely to crack a tile. And don't use a golf club because you'll miss the snake and break a light or hit it and break a window, or both.'

We had a snake in the pool filter box this morning apparently. My wife spotted it after it (snake) had been for a swim. Don't blame it ....it was hot outside today apparently !
