This is about the best place to get the best advice related to common rural problems. Over the years I know there have been snakes in a basement of a house I just bought. Half of the house has a deep basement. The other half of the basement is just two crawl tunnels for plumbing and heating. The walls (foundation) are limestone rocks. They are cemented up pretty well. The window wells are somewhat poor I think. One side of the house has an attached garage with a good poured foundation around it. The three other sides have porches with good poured foundations. Taking out the porches and garage there is probably only 40 feet of exposed limestone foundation to the outside. It could probably use some work this summer to check and close it up tight. I see three or four snake skins in the basement. Snakes have tried to get up through plumbing holes and around heat ducts in the past. Probably less problems in the last 5 years than ever though. My question is how do I get rid of them before I tighten things up????? How can you exterminate them or drive them out??? Are there any poisons?? High frequency noise??? Cats??? Lights???? Smells/odors???? What about fumigation? I know if I am driving them out that this shouldn't probably be done until spring as they probably wouldn't go. Your thoughts are appreciated. andy

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
