No.Experiments done with carbolic acid has prooved it wrong.So we are yet to find a strong snake repellent.But for any practical purposes precaution meantime seems to be a better option.House cleanliness,rodent hole destruction,banning snake hiding place (like bushes,unneccessary heapings etc etc) would in great extent reduce snakes gaining access to our houses.

The short answer is that snake repellents do not work. The products depend on the desperation of truly scared home owners who are willing to try almost anything to get rid of a snake or snakes on their property. The ingredients they contain have no effect on snakes at all, and even if they did, the first rain would wash them away.For details see:http://tinyurl.com/nmjjw2

Is hydrochloric acid repulsive to dogs?
Hydrochloric acid has a strong odor and I would suspect it would be repulsive to dogs. It is a very strong acid and can be dangerous/harmful to the animal.
