Poor guy couldnt afford the Viper alarm system so he goes the redneck route and installs a python....

Seriously though wow good luck with that one. Worst case scenario is you end up with several dead rats in you car in places you'd never be able to access and have to deal with the stink LOL Mothballs would do the trick. My dad owns a hvac business and when we encounter snakes up under a house mothballs run them out every time. Good luck.

did you think the snake was going to stay in place in your trunk until you finished your conversation?

This is probably the best thread I've ever seen on the CF! Can't wait to see how it plays out. You should just put another ball python in there so it has some company... I always had two at a time back in the day because I heard they like it

Alex,
....If you have not gotten it out yet try squirting an ounce or two of rubbing alcohol into where it is hiding. That will cause the snake to come right out. Gasoline works way better than rubbing alcohol but would be dangerous.

Well the snake is still smarter than me and the moth ***** are not working, at least not enough to make it come completely out. It will come partially out at night and just kinda stay mostly inside. I checked it last night as I usually do to see if it might be roaming around and figured I would snap a pic to prove the validity of this thread in case some were doubting it... or just need a good laugh



With flash on.


I have resolved to buy a mouse tonight and wait for it to come out again and it should definitely take the bait. The snake definitely has a big appetite so I am betting this will work. Just have to make sure the mouse is far enough to draw it out completely.

Can't you just grab it when he sticks his head out like that?

No. That's about 30% of the whole snake. Remember, snakes can stretch and contort their bodies so even if I were to grab it with a very tight grip it could still get out of my hand. If I hold it too tightly I might risk hurting it.

I agree...I think a mouse on a piece of string would work...hang that mouse in front of him and slowly pull the mouse toward the other side might lure him out....then again, now that I think about it....if he did catch the mouse and ate him you would have a piece of string hanging down your snakes throat lol OK...back to put a mouse in there and hope it's far enough away for the snake to come out....then ****** him up!

Hey Alex,

I thought I read that if you cut it in half, it will grow a new head or tail, or something

Peace

I can just hold the mouse by the tail. Maybe I will get a video if I can coax my roommate to watch. He is not particularly fond of snakes.
