Does Human Urine Scare Snakes Off?

Answer 1

Some say it works. Some say spreading Mothballs works. I've used powdered sulfer, you can buy it in farm supply stores. It is a yellow/ green powder, and I was told to make a thick trail of it around your house. Leaving a small opening in the trail, this I was told is to let the snakes leave the enclosed area, like a back door. That year and the following I didn't have any snakes, but that could have been for many reasons, other than the sulfer. I can't say for certain what the reasons for the drop in the snake encounters was, but there was a decline in the number.

Answer 2

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that human urine scares snakes off. Snakes rely more on their sense of smell and vibrations to detect potential threats or prey. It's always best to avoid provoking or approaching snakes to reduce the risk of bites.
