Paul Simpson Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Quick question are snakes common in the suburbs just moved to woodvale am I likely to see a snake in the gardens have a dog, 2 cats and a wee boy. Have seen snake repellents are they just a load of nonsense ? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Not really - we've been here 6 years and not seen one at home, more likely to come across redbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Simpson Posted September 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Thanks Ali I'm pretty sure it's not a major issue just wanted to get people's views, flying the animals from nz dont want them munched by a snake ! and the weeman would be interested in playing with a snake ! red backs are they more in sheds and outside or do you get them inside, any huntsman ? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 We've had a redback inside - but mostly outside, and one huntsman inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Simpson Posted September 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I can live with one or 2 over a 6 year period ! cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulandDeb Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Always a chance mate, highly unlikely unless you have piles of wood everywhere or sheds with bases they can get under etc, long grass, normally a well used and kept garden as less snakes in it.

verystormy Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Your unlikely to come across them in the suburbs. If walking in the countryside, it is best to stick to paths though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
