Good morning,
The easiest way to capture a snake that has come inside the house is to lay a trash container on its side in front of a snake and GENTLY sweep the snake into the container using a broom. Set the container upright and secure the lid. The broom handle should keep you safely beyond the snake’s striking distance. Most snakes are harmless to people.
Release the snake in appropriate habitat as soon as possible. Just take the lid off and lay the container on its side. The habitat should be located away from roads, provide sunlit areas that are not frequently mowed, and have areas of cover, such as tall grass, logs, or rocks, under which the snake can hide.
If you have more questions please e-mail me.
