    Q
    How long does the Snake Guard Snake Trap work before the glue is ineffective?
    A
    The glue on the Snake Guard Snake Trap will work for as long as it remains sticky. High temperatures can melt the glue or freezing teperatures can make the glue too stiff and it will be ineffective. Dust and other debris that gets on the glue can also render it ineffective.

    Q
    Will the Snake Guard Snake Trap work in dark areas?
    I have a snake that has somehow gotten into the crawl space beneath my home. The area is enclosed and dark all of the time. Will the trap work in this space. The instructions say that the snake will seek the dark space of the trap.
    A
    Snake Guard Snake Traps do offer a snake a dark area, but that is not the only reason they would enter the trap. Snakes also like small confined areas to hide and this trap would also offer them that. You should also place the trap directly in their travel path, so they naturally slither right into it. Place traps right up against and parallel to the wall near doors, vents, windows or other suspected entry/exit point.

    Q
    Can the Snake Guard Snake Trap be used more than once?
    A

    The Snake Guard Snake Trap can be used more than once, but it all depends on how much of the "sticky glue" is left after the snake has gotten stuck. Most people do not want to handle the snake, so they just throw the whole board out with the snake inside. If you don't mind handling the snake, you can use vegetable oil to get the snake off of the board where it is stuck. If there is still enough sticky parts on the board, then it can be used again.

    Q
    Does the Snake Guard Snake Trap have something on it that attracts the snake or not?
    A

    No, the Snake Guard Snake Trap does not contain an attractant. Snakes naturally want to enter dark confined areas and will readily go into the trap. Be sure that the traps are placed into the snakes travel path (parallel and directly against walls, on ledges, near doors or windows)

    Q
    How will I know when a snake has been trapped on a Snake Guard Glue Board? Also, will it trap a 4 ft. snake?
    A

    The Snake Guard Snake Trap will trap a 4 foot long snake with no problem.  The only way to know if a snake has been caught is to look inside the trap.  The snake will get stuck on the glue inside the box and you can dispose of the whole trap with the snake inside or you can choose to release the snake by applying copious amounts of vegetable oil to the trap and the snake until it is freed from the glue.

    Q
    How to get rid of possibly a very large snake in attic?
    Cleaning out an attic and found about 5ft skin from a snake, dead mice in traps (from the pest service I did have) Now I'm scared of coming across a very large snake in my attic. What is the best way to approach this? Kind of irritated I'm been spending 400.00/year on pest control and they didn't take care of my problem in the attic.
    A
    We do offer the Hi Yield Snake Repellent that can be broadcast around the structure to keep them from entering the home. Please leave an area free of the repellent so if there are snakes inside the opportunity to freely exit the structure.  For control of snakes indoors we would recommend Snake Guard Snake Traps. The Snake Guard Glue Board is a giant covered glue board trap measuring 23"L x 12"W x 2.5"H. With the Snake trap you can safely and effectively remove small or large snakes from within homes and other structures. The sticky glue incapacitates even large snakes, allowing for live capture, safe removal and live release at an appropriate location

    Q
    After a snake is trapped in the Snake Guard Snake Trap, how long does it take to die?
    A

    The purpose of the Snake Guard Snake Trap is to capture the snake so that you can relocate and release the snake. If the snake is left on the trap long enough, it will eventually die but there is no way to know how long that will take.

    For more specific information you would be best to contact the manufacturer, Wildlife Control Supplies at 877-684-7262.
