Please don't blast me here... I have a ball python and and getting advice on dealing with a yard snake issue. I have a fenced in yard with 2 dogs. One came in last night with a swollen jaw and you could see two puncture marks. I live in GA so there are only a couple I can think of that would be the culprit. I am sure the dog instigated something and hopefully learned his lesson but I need see if there is an alternative to going out there and trying to eliminate the problem if we seem to have any more. The bite marks were close together and the first thought that went through my mind was a nest of something. Since I also have kids (older but not always the most observent) I want to do what i can without just going out and declaring an all out war on anything slithering out there (with fangs).
