Does Your Rattlesnake Proof Fence Actually Work? 

Haadi Mo'Bux same

Same Canadian here yet I watched the whole thing 😂

Where do you live, in a cardboard box?

LOL, You never know where the heck you'll end up when you click on the first RU-vid video of the day; I think that's why it's so much fun. Their "recommendations" always have some videos that my mind would never have thought to be curious about. One day I found myself watching a video that was literally about watching paint drying on a wall! Hey, Enjoy!

I'm all the way I South Africa, don't think we have rattlesnakes here but I too watched the whole thing 😅

I encourage Roadrunners to hang around by putting water out and feeding them bite sized balls of frozen hamburger meat. The Roadrunners come around in the morning and evening. Watching them go after a Rattler is very interesting to watch. Rattlers are no match for a Roadrunner. The parts of my property where dogs or people go is fenced as shown here with 1/4" mesh. The open areas that aren't cleared is where I feed the Roadrunners. They look for me and come calling as soon as I show up.

yeah, roadrunner are badass on snakes

Can you have a chicken coop type dwelling to have them your live-in as permanent guest

cause the mongoose doesnt give a fuck

Nota Rookie What is a roadrunner?

Shut up

I definitely have no reason to be here but this is good information

I live in an Australian inner city, where snakes are extremely unlikely to occur (other than in the bush and along rivers). However, for some reason, knowing about 1/4 inch mesh is very reassuring.

I have also no reason to be here lol

How much $$$ was it?

Good point. Everything you see in the video is galvanized steel for that reason.

​@@RattlesnakeSolutionsso let's say you buy 3acres of land in Arizona can you install a fence on all 3 acres around your house

all valid, however the many rats, mice and moles create many paths below any "fencing" installed, even fencing installed on concrete footings a full 24" below grade. no simple solutions there and remain easy entry points. I am talking from experience, not theory

How did you secure the to pto stay angled outward?

Thank you very much!

​@@gordonalmadi5871That thought actually ran through my head... hey, if they're after the rodents... what's to keep them out of those access holes?

I can send you some black mambas, cape cobras etc if you want, we have more than enough and sharing is caring...

Why India, you don't get those snakes in India? I'm from South Africa.

Black mambas & CAPE cobras should tell you it can't be India. Who said anything about being proud?

Your from Germany? I nazi that coming?

Gnig 🤷🏻‍♂️

Move to Australia if you want snakes

​@@wildlifewarrior2670Never seen any there either and I've slept on the ground in the outback quite a few times. Maybe I have BO???

Good idea. And of course be very careful to make sure the gates and everything is the same, or you just have a good snake trap.

If it's that obvious, we wouldn't see it on 4/5 of the fence jobs that we correct, and HOAs wouldn't require 1/2" standards, which of course let baby snakes in. We agree, but many people apparently don't.

Plant Based well im pleased you find it helpful!!!!

Snots1971 is gay

its that obvious, americans just cant think of the simplest things, thx to that nonmetric shit system youre guys using.

haha, I was thinking the same.

Justin Y. yes daddy

Oh hi Justin.

again

I swear I just saw you on what snake venom dose to your blood

iceboy328, Canada has rattlesnakes. Prairie, Western, Timber, Massasauga. Rattlesnakes are found up to the 60th parallel (border is 49th?). Only three recorded deaths in Canada in decades, but lots of bites. Only one in 50 million die from rattlesnake bites.

Depends where in Canada you live. I have seen three and in three different provinces.

My daughter’s friends dog was bit by a rattlesnake. She is a professional dog walker and has never taker a dog where the sneakers would be moving at that particular time of year. German Shorthair Retriever just his nose by a snake fence and bam he was hit in the fence. The snake was angry he was caught in the fence and the dog recovered but he took a long while and the snake and severe bodily injuries and had to be put down. Snakes are protected by law here as well as.

He's really good

PET SNEK

Alll right!

Smaller!!! Some worms are thin as hairs!!

1/2048 inch.

leroy jenkins a full wall

D'artanyan the Meow-sketeer, We are never safe from worms! They can initiate a coordinated attack UNDER solid walls! We’re doomed.

i like the kraken it reminds me of tentacle hentai jk xD

until you get bit on the toe and you're in the emergency room.

Ze Kraut was about to say that

Non venomous snake are cool

Yeah, and many snakes are super sweet. I can’t get one at the moment but I always hold them at reptile expos. They’re great little things.

Of Course. Why don't you give it a go?

Wyrm why?

Explorer Nature, Common myth. Actual studies show baby rattlesnakes are NOT any more venomous.

I caught a diamondback, many years ago, that ended up being pregnant. I was curious about why she wouldn’t eat. She’d bite the mice but wouldn’t eat them. Day 11 she had the babies. 3 of them. One was dead at birth. I took mom back out to the desert and let her go. I raised the babies for 2 years before letting them go as well. I accidentally found out what makes them more dangerous when I went to Michigan for my dad’s surgery. I was supposed to be gone only two weeks but ended up staying 7 weeks. As soon as I got home I fed the snakes. Normally when the mice were bitten they would run around the 6’ aquarium 2-3 minutes before falling down and not doing much more. After not eating for 7 weeks the mice fell within seconds, which I thought was odd. So I experimented with it. The longer they went without using the venom the more potent it became. This is actual science as it was repeated multiple times with identical results. 2 snakes with identical results each time. The idea that snakes can “control” their bites is also nothing more than a myth. At best there’s probably more evidence to suggest a defensive strike (spur of the moment/dry bite) vs a…time to eat bite.

You do know there were many hundreds of miles of fences and walls before Trump got elected, don't you? He didn't invent border control.

Troubadour Troubadour crack head 😂

Gilberto West 😤 😷 😆

Troubadour Troubadour what about Mexican bats

Now there’s a thought.

Could be an ideal place for some terrified Texians.

Stop worrying about deadly snakes. That's the easiest cheapest thing in the world. How does that sound? As for machos, I have no advice, sorry. Just keep shooting and don't be shy to tell others, the whole world in fact, how clever you are.

u need help

looking back at that I see it lol

This is a service that we provide in Arizona, so Eastern species like a pygmy may have different tolerances.

I’m in America and we don’t have snakes...

They really are not that common. And American snakes have nothing on Australian.

AFTER they have bitten you when you walk out in your sandals and shorts. I prefer not giving a snake an opportunity to bite me thank you.

pussy

BeeN BRAZY hides behind a gun instead of just removing the snake from his yard :/

What do humans do for rattle snakes??

May I suggest the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?

"It's not an ordinary rabbit! It's got a mean streak a mile wide!!"😂

bunnies can be dangerous. they will steal your carrots. beware of any rabbit named Bugs. He killed my friend Elmer and my friend Sam.

Terry Weaver Using the proper size mesh is one of many aspects to proper rattlesnake fencing. However, 20” is not sufficient to keep larger rattlesnakes out.

Rattlesnake Solutions LLC --- Yes you are correct. My point was doing the first 20." And the rest of the fence can be 1/2" mesh. My fault for not following through with that.

That makes more sense, thanks for clarifying!

Rattlesnake Solutions LLC could the snakes not tunnel underneath

They don't dig their own holes, and we also dig the mesh into the ground to prevent anything going under. The depth that we bury it depends on the rodents in the area and the quality of the soil. Many rodents and softer soil = deeper fencing, etc.

I got a chuckle out of this.

that's right Murica a gun is always the solution over common sense,do not piss in your pants over your fright

Shooting at things in your backyard doesn't prevent anything.

Rattlesnake Solutions LLC no but, it sure scares the hell out of the neighbors. :)

In all seriousness, firing a weapon in an area where people are residing STILL has laws in the U.S.A. It is an arrest-able offense. Clearly james ellis is in the dark about the facts. Moving on... How far up your fence (and below ground) is needed to keep rattlesnakes ans bull snakes out of a 1/3rd acre in the south eastern region of Colorado? I rescue and rehab dogs in this area.

Patrick Szabo - Snake meat is tasty too! Few times they got in My coops caught them eating eggs and thats with 1/4 mesh buried AND up 3 ft on Chicken wire. If they want in they can usualy find a way!

Gabelhelm Sogarbraten - it's cute till it bites you lol

Mr. Saephan it wont bite me cause i wont bother it snakes just want to get away from people they wont waste venom or risk being damaged or killed unless you fuck around with them

Yuck!!! a cute snake is a dead snake.

4u25out that makes no sense.. a dead snake looks exactly like an alive snake so you’re basically just saying that snakes look cute in general

thats the reason people get bitten , they dont see it till they strike
