I think it would be hard to explain how to probe through a post, but you're doing the right thing by having someone who is experienced show you how to do it.



It's actually easier to do than I thought it would be and the snakes don't seem to mind at all as long as you're gentle.



Someone a few weeks ago mentioned using a tube to put the snake in while probing which seems like a good idea. I've never tried that though.



Good luck.
