Rattlesnakes will generally not attack you unless they feel threatened, and have no avenue of escape. Just make plenty of noise and/or racket, just like people do to prevent bear attacks. If you want to keep rattlesnakes away from your home, relocate sources of heat like dryer vents and make areas like underneath a porch less shady.

∙ 8y agoIf you live in rattlesnake country, that is difficult. If your yard is surrounded completely by a cinder block wall, that should work. Make sure you do not have a population of rats or mice in the yard as this attracts the snakes as a food source. Otherwise, learn to live with them. You are on their backyard and in their territory. They were there long before you.

What can you put around the out side of your home and yard to distract rattlesnakes coming around?
No, virtually nothing will work. What you need to do is eliminate anything in the yard that attracts rattlesnakes such as piles of trash, wood piles, etc. Keep grass and weeds and shrubs well trimmed. Doing these things gets rid of hidding places that snakes like. Get rid of things, such as pet food or bird seed in the yard that draws rodents. The presence of rodents attracts snakes looking for a meal.
