Get yourself a nice black rat snake.
(Unironically, it drives me up a wall when I hear about people trying to exterminate snakes and spiders; the only reason those are around is because their food is.)
- chairmansteve 1y agoI have a black widow problem. Their food is flying insects.... Any tips?
- mikkupikku 1y agoI wouldn't worry about them. A few thousand people get bit by them every year but there hasn't been a fatality in decades. They're very unlikely to bite and very unlikely to cause any harm at all even if they do bite. Maybe get some sticky fly paper though.

- marcosdumay 1y ago> the only reason those are around is because their food is For some reason everybody in my city is proudly boasting bout the recent large capybara population... And again, for some reason those same people didn't react well when jaguars decided to show up in the urban area. People are stupid.
- zdragnar 1y agoWe have all of the above and more. Alas, my wife is more afraid of our rat and pine snakes than she is of mice and rats. Fortunately, the pine snakes only try to move into our house and sheds once or twice a year or so.
