Snake-A-Way uses a university-tested formula designed to repel both venomous and non-venomous snakes, such as garter snakes and rattlesnakes. The formula is so effective on snakes because it targets the method snakes rely on most to find prey, smell. Use it around the perimeters of areas you want to protect, including houses, cabins, trailers, garages, flowerbeds, and more.

Snakes are extremely sensitive to smells. Snake-A-Way temporarily disrupts the snake’s Jacobson’s Organ (auxiliary olfactory sense organ), on which a snake relies for its survival. This disruption causes a snake to become disoriented, forcing it to retreat in search of fresh air.

Apply granules in bands to create an effective barrier against snakes. Be sure to spread the repellent around the entire area. Any breaks in the repellent lines are a potential entry point.

To repel garter snakes, apply 4 to 5-inch-wide bands outdoors around areas you wish to protect. Be sure to wear gloves. Reapply when scent fades or after heavy rains.

To repel rattlesnakes, apply 8 to 12-inch-wide bands outdoors around areas you wish to protect. Be sure to wear gloves. Reapply when scent fades or after heavy rains.
