Safer Brand Snake Shield, 4 lb Granular Snake Repellent for Yard

Recommended by professional critter control person telling me it would smell better to have that around my front door than his commercial product. All my problem with granules is that they become ineffective after rain and have to be reapplied several times. Have not seen any snakes since I put them in the garden near the front door. Usually only see harmless black racer snakes, which are not dangerous, but seem to frighten visitors. Will continue to use this product along with another that is waterproof and reusable.

I buy this because it’s very effective shielding my yard from unwanted snakes and also because it’s safe around my grandchild, my family and my pet. Another reason is that nearby Magic Mountain Theme Park buys in bulk each summer to prevent rattlesnakes etc from injuring patrons. That’s another great reason why I buy only this brand!

This stuff worked wonders helping me rid garter snakes out of my mom's backyard. The stuff smells good to humans but snakes hate it. Just be careful not to apply if there's any rain in the short-term forecast as it makes the stuff worthless. BUT, if there isn't any rain, this stuff is great!

It worked!!! Goodbye snake! I feel safe now. Florida can be scary but thanks to this I’ve seen no snakes recently.

It didn't get rid of the snakes like id hoped. They moved and then returned to their den after rain. I assume it's washed away. Re applied several times and same results. May not be a permanent solution.

We have used it for 5ish years being in a very high rattlesnake populated area. Our neighbors states that they would see a few at least once a year during the spring/ early summer. We lay it around the outside of the gated area, a river rock divider between our driveway and our neighbors driveway and we have not seen one. (THANK GOODNESS!!!) We also had our grandma buy some since she is in the hills in northern Cali, and has also stopped seeing them on her property. We count it as a win!

Seriously, it doesn't work. Save your money and invest in fine mesh chicken wire and zip ties! Use vinegar to wash away any signs of snake food (mice, squirrels, etc.). Remove any low lying vegetation where snakes can hide. We live in AZ, and yes, rattlesnakes are common in our neighborhood. We maintain our yard so snakes cannot hide easily. We had regular chicken wire around all access points in our yard, but some snakes find their way in. (It's a big yard next to open desert.) Bring in the SNAKE SHIELD! We figured it would help keep snakes out as an extra precaution. 3 BAGS later and two weeks later... Rattlesnake was on our back patio and bit our dog's face. Dog is fine, thankfully, but it cost $2,500 in vet bills ($500 for each vial of antivenin X 2, plus massive painkillers), plus time off from work. But the snake had to go over a nice thick line of SNAKE GUARD to get inside. Note we did two rounds of Snake Guard outside that particular area. Did not make a lick of difference to that snake. We ended up just buying a ton more chicken wire (not pretty) and resealing the yard.

So far no snakes in my yard
