Q: Snake in the garage!! HELP!
This won't make me a very popular person here but I don't care for snakes. I live in Ohio and left the garage open while I cut grass yesterday and later found a foot long dark snake in the garage. When I returned with gloves the critter was gone. What can I do to discourage this snake and get him to return to his home outside? Don't suppose anyone sells "Snake BeGone"? I do have dry dog food in a closed container and bird seed in a closed container out there. Thanks, Miss Jude

A: Snake in the garage!! HELP!
If there are no rodents, insects, or water in the garage, then the snake will likely leave on its own. You may want to bring in the bird food and dog food for a little while to make sure there are no mice in it.
