Friends, as we all know, snakes are one of the most dangerous animals in the world. They are venomous and deadly. The mere sight of them can make anyone uneasy. Especially if your home is near a park, forest, pond, or rocky area, the chances of seeing snakes increase. But did you know that snakes hate the smell of certain things, and they run away at the very smell of them?
1. Mint and Basil:
Snakes cannot tolerate the smell of mint and basil. Planting these herbs in your home or garden not only acts as a natural snake repellent but also freshens the environment.
2. Garlic and Onion:
Snakes dislike the strong smell of garlic and onion. You can crush them and scatter them at potential entry points, or mix them with water and spray them near walls and doors.
3. Smoke:
Snakes are extremely sensitive to smoke. If you suspect the presence of snakes around your home, burning some dried leaves or incense sticks can help repel them.
4. Lemon, Vinegar, and Cinnamon Oil:
Mix equal parts lemon juice, vinegar, and a few drops of cinnamon oil and spray this mixture around your home. Its scent effectively repels snakes.
5. Ammonia Gas:
Snakes dislike the pungent smell of ammonia. Placing small containers of ammonia near potential snake entry points can help keep them away.
