Yes, get the snake hook, but in addition, go to the hardware store and buy a pair of the soft leather work gloves. Be sure to get leather, it will be safer for the animal AND it will offer you more protection. With the gloves you will have better interaction with the snake, he will get use to being "handled",and you will not have to be fearful of the strike.

In addition, be sure to wear a long sleeve shirt and keep him a safe distance from your face!!

Good luck and take care,

Scott
