I told them the only way I knew to remove them was shoot them, he told me could not use a gun in city limits so I declined the job. I don't have a removal business, so does anyone have a idea of how that job could have been done.

( I mean the golf course )

Get a set or two of grasping tongs of a couple different lengths a good sturdy sack or a couple of buckets and you are in business. Most likely you would get some repeat business over time as well. www.jamesonsultrablend.com www.wildlifepestcontrolservices.com

Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon. Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor. Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!

Most folks can't tell the difference tween a non-venomous water snake and cottonmouth. Tongs and a burlap sack would be my go to tools on this 1...easy money. Cahaba snake trap or even home made 1 out of downspout mat'l would not work since the terrain is too open. www.sevenoakstrappingsupplies.com for trap mods and gear The 10 Commandments are not suggestions. Buy a soldiers meal EVERY chance you can.

Most folks can't tell the difference tween a non-venomous water snake and cottonmouth. Agree 100%. I'd never believe the callers when dealing with snake calls. I've been doing this 26 years, and have NEVER responded to a call that actually HAD a venomous snake, but 50% of the callers know it is! BTW.... also never had to "shoot" snakes. Catch by hand (with tongs) or trap them using glue traps. Sounds like they are reacting on fear if they think shooting is the answer. Ron Scheller
