(haipo) – With the arrival of summer and rising temperatures, snakes begin to become more active and sometimes approach residential areas in search of food and hiding places. For many, this unexpected encounter can be frightening and even dangerous. Certified snake catcher, Dagan Erez, Explains that by taking a few simple steps and maintaining your home and garden properly, you can significantly reduce the chance of encountering snakes. In this article, we will present important tips that will help you maintain a safe and pest-free environment and spend the summer with peace of mind.
1. Tidy up the garden (eliminate hiding places)
Snakes seek out dark, crowded corners.
- pruning: Keep the grass short and prune the bushes that touch the ground and the walls of the house.
- Scrap removal: Stacks of ceramics, tiles, planks or trimmings.
- Sealing warehouses: Make sure there are no gaps under the storage door.
2. Treating the triggers (food and water)
A snake comes to a place where there is something to eat.
- Rodent control: Mice and rats are their favorite food. Have you taken care of the rodents? You have significantly reduced the chance of snakes.
- Water drying: Fix leaky faucets and empty containers with standing water.
3. Seal the house
- Seal cracks under doors and around pipes.
- Keep away tree branches or climbers that touch the roof or windows – snakes are excellent climbers!
Important to know: Myths that don't work!
Don't waste time spreading lime, gravel, eggs, garlic or mothballs. And all the other stuff you're sold on, there's no scientific proof and in my experience, they don't really keep snakes away. The only way is to simply keep your garden clean and tidy.
Encounter a snake? Do not try to catch or kill it.
- Maintain a safe distance (at least 2-3 meters).
- Maintain continuous eye contact with the snake.
- Call a certified trapper – Dagan Erez 0548808300 immediately.
- Remember – the snake is a protected animal and must not be harmed.
Have a safe and peaceful summer!

Wow, soon these crazy people will also say that mosquitoes are a protected animal.
Protected, protected, but if she enters my territory - Dina M/T.
I don't hang around in her yard - don't hang around in my yard.
It's great that the authorities are protecting her.
I am a mother and it is my job to protect my children.
Even if it's at the price of one less snake.
Bye.
The same as above, a snake encounters me in the field, I am doomed to part with its head, in that moment of fear who even remembers to call anyone?
Good to know..thanks..question: If you are bitten by a snake, before medical treatment, how do you treat the injury after being bitten..?
Just as it is forbidden to kill a snake or one of its kind, so is it also forbidden to kill a snake?
The best of snakes chopped off his head.
Only the devil can protect snakes, this is the order of creation, he will shed his heel and you will bite him. When you see a poisonous snake, you kill it immediately, such is the law of nature.
Right!!!
As someone who knows the laws of "nature," at least quote correctly: "He will bruise your head and you will bruise his heel."
By the way, do you obey all the laws of "nature"?
Humans, if not part of nature, people like you are a disaster for nature (especially people like you)
Does Khalil only work on cobras or other snakes too?
If it's a side flute... it's a protected animal problem, it's said here.
It's not the playing of the flute, but the movement with the flute that makes the snake react.
