Neighbor's dog got bit last weekend and incurred a $2500 vet bill. Not trying to hear any of that, or, you know, get bit by a rattlesnake.
Our backyard is small, and we have a 6 ft high iron bar fence along the backyard, which opens up on a golf course (LAM). I think it's about 50 feet across.
Starting off with these along the back fence line: https://www.amazon.com/Tysonir-Powered-Repellent-Outdoor-Electronic/dp/B07QFGWKDB/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=rattlesnake+repellent&qid=1558499579&s=gateway&sr=8-7
Also going to use a homebrew of snake repellent that contains peppermint oil, cinnamon oil, and clove oil. This is the same mixture, in equal parts, as one of the store-bought brands, but it's way cheaper if you DIY, like 20x cheaper. Also going to 2x the concentration, just to be safe.
Getting a rattlesnake fence. Digging a small ditch and making sure it's buried underground. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Hardware-Galvanized-Vegetables-Fencing-Critters/dp/B015PD9IOU/ref=sr_1_15?keywords=rattlesnake+fence&qid=1558499955&s=gateway&sr=8-15
Traps too? Will this be enough? Thoughts (but not prayers) encouraged, TIA.
